How's everyone feeling? My dd was pretty much able to forget about results during July but said in a very quiet voice this morning, "I'll find out this month where I'm going."

Is anyone doing anything yet in preparation for 17th? Should we be doing anything yet in preparation for 17th?!

Moving along the track website says it opens at 8am, do you think they open it earlier sometimes?

Morning all (I'll let you know later if it's good or not). Also feeling nauseated here too.

DS's school don't send results out so Track should be our first indication. What do we reckon? Half seven ish?

Doobydoo · 17/08/2017 06:36

Am hoping 7.30 as start work at 8! Hope your son gets in with that moving....I think hevshould! Right off to do things.Thanks to all those who took time to explain things. Again Good Luck to all.

Good news here, results are higher than his offer so we can relax and celebrate.

Thinking of you still waiting or figuring things out.

Well done. I wish we could get the results this early.

movingalong · 17/08/2017 06:47

OK we are BBC.
We had firm AAB from Manchester and reserve ABB from Liverpool.
Liverpool are offering the same course in clearing with BBC so fingers crossed...
