A Level Anxiety

[Toffee22]

Only 4 more "sleeps" until the A level results come out - not that I will be doing much sleeping...

Eldest son wants to study medicine. 3 "A's" required no slip ups allowed. Have just checked and most medical schools don't accept re-sits. How can I face looking at the cold hard facts at some point on Thursday. I'm sure it will be difficult for my son too! When I tried to talk to him about it today instead of a response he said he would do an "impression of a tree". It wasn't even a very good impression. What does this mean?

Congraulations your place at ..... to study ......has been confirmed

Then click 'choices' and it says 'unconditional'

Well done to your boy BTW Pag, you must be very proud.

Wahey DD got her ABB and is off to Leeds. Got her results at 7.25 am. Been checking every 5 mins since about 2am!

Ds1 doesn't get his from school until ten but his head of sixth form emailled him about half an hour ago

Thanks fell..

I am sitting here waiting for his place to be confirmed (fingers crossed) watching everyone on here...good luck all.
It is nice to have others sharing this tbh because it feels such big news to be getting in front of a computer in a quiet house iyswim

I have no idea whether that option is even availble to DS and his phone is unavailable! I think he might still be in the air - not sure.

God I feel like I'm going to spontaneously combust!

Good luck all, we are going to drive to school now, have to give up on clearing, site impossible.
He will have to find out the old fashioned way

Good luck all-so glad I'm not doing waiting this year-one of the worst parts of being a parent-and -fingers crossed for you all- one of the best.

It has bloody crashed hasn't it...

But ds1 just got a text confirming his place. Yeeehaaaa!

English at Exeter. Fantabulous

We can't track either, and have to wait till 10am for school results.

Congrats to everyone who got the results they need,

Those who didn't, I am so sorry. Good luck with the next steps, Plan Bs. Hopefully something good will be sorted by the end of today.

Curry - that is exactly what ds1 has been swearing about. Did it take them by surprise ?

We went to school, and she's got into Durham. Whoopee. Relief is immense. Best of luck to this still waiting, and thanks for this thread - it's been such a support.

DS2 isn't even up yet & says he won't get his results until 10

congratulations to everybody who's in so far

mumof3teens, I'm hoping DS2 will be joining yours at Sheffield.....

Hi all - my DS is only 6, so I have a long time to wait to be in your shoes (probably no Alevels by then) but just wanted to wish everyone the best of luck.

Proud big sister moment over here- my sister has just texted to say she got three As- she's in to law at Sheffield!

Fingers crossed Ponders. What is he going to study?

My DS's GF's mum has just rung - they went onto track at 7am as well and she is in to her first choice. Why am i the only stupid person who didn't think to go on track earlier even though I've been pacing since 5am?

fuckity fuck. I'm convinced this is meaning bad news.
