What do you do now?

nothing. I'm not going to uni and I most likely won't.
popcorn preference? :holmes:
Unfortunately 40% of grades are rated as an A or A*, top grades meaning have been diluted to simply an above average grade. 3 years ago it would have been a real achievement. Nowadays I really don’t put any weight behind A-level attainment.

And for what it’s worth, id probably focus on what you want to achieve in the next 3-5 years not reminisce, in a couple years at the next set of doors the gate-holders will ask what have you done recently.

I'm not going to uni, so it won't matter, my alevels are my only achievement.

I'd love to but I can't afford uni and my parents won't allow me to go, i'm not eligible for a scholarship because my parents are not poor. Even if i get a scholarship somehow, my parents still won't allow me.

Have you considered finding something better to do?

flashcards, I memorised the textbook and CIE has thousands of past papers and I did almost all of them, the grade thresholds were also low.

You did "thousands" of past papers. Gosh, that must have taken a long time.

it's not impossible, i don't have social life or hobbies, so i spent most of my time revising. i'm not the only one, many people in my school also did that many past papers.

I certainly agree with your first point.
Is your intention to actually help people achieve A*s or to just show off.

the latter, i made that clear too.
How many times have you gotten laid?
my igcse result sucks if that accounts for anything. I got A*s in chemistry, biology, A in english lit and history, B in english lang, D in physics and maths.
