Following on from our previous thread.

Good luck to all DC awaiting results and university places.

School question: Is it only the SLT and the Exams Officer(s) who get to see the results today?

Been up half the night feeling sick. DD refusing to log on til 8 when track comes online, she's psyching herself up.

Congratulations to those who have got their uni places!

DS still pretending to beasleep. In fact, everyone is still in bed.

fishonabicycle · 15/08/2019 07:30

Thanks freedadonkey! He's deferring - which is the best hall's? So we can get in early!

Shimy · 15/08/2019 07:31

Well done Piggy.

AtiaoftheJulii · 15/08/2019 07:32

Oh thank fuck he made his offer!

glitterbiscuits · 15/08/2019 07:32

School opens at 8.
School is 30 minutes away
It's 7.30
DS has just got up
I only need to put my shoes on!

I'm bored!

Decorhate · 15/08/2019 07:33

Ds just got into Track - got accepted at his firm. The results are almost immaterial now!

Congrats to everyone else who has heard already.

Piggywaspushed · 15/08/2019 07:33

Shows how much enabling I have done of DS! My own email inbox is full of clearing emails!!

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 15/08/2019 07:34

DD also got a text from NTU Smile

UCAS Track is now open according to twitter

Fibbsdottir · 15/08/2019 07:34

No movement from dds room so far. No news is good news.

Serin · 15/08/2019 07:35

Good luck to everyones DC today. I hate this time of year.
Our school doesn't open until 8.30am.

Northernlurker · 15/08/2019 07:35

Up and feeling sick. School opens at 8. This is a long 25 minutes.

lovelyupnorth · 15/08/2019 07:37

My dd missed out on first choice which was on a different system to track at 7. But track now open and has got insurance. So much happier. But is deferring so still not 100% on going to uni.

jellybeanteaparty · 15/08/2019 07:37

Track seems to be open

Mustbetimeforachange · 15/08/2019 07:37

I just said to DH that I would look on Twitter to see if track was updated. His answer? "What's track?". Aaaargh.

Fibbsdottir · 15/08/2019 07:37

I feel sick, my stomach is going nuts. I should get up but I'm kind of paralysed in my bed.

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 15/08/2019 07:40

DS didn't get Durham but got UEA so he clearly didn't get AAB!!!

Mustbetimeforachange · 15/08/2019 07:42

Is he ok with that new?

hanahsaunt · 15/08/2019 07:43

Track has confirmed ds1 first choice - offer was AAA so although results are almost immaterial it will be good to see them in a relaxed fashion. Then I may have a nap.

Shimy · 15/08/2019 07:45

DS got into first choice Cardiff!!!!! Don’t know actual results yet, I can’t believe it! No more worrying about backup plans, retakes, foundations etc, how he did it I don’t know.

Mustbetimeforachange · 15/08/2019 07:45

DS didn't get firm (they offered him a different course) but did get insurance. Now in no rush to go into school!

Fibbsdottir · 15/08/2019 07:48

Dd1 is still asleep.

Dd2 is ecstatic as she got a 9 in igcse english lit. Its really hard to celebrate properly with the not knowing about dd1.

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 15/08/2019 07:49

He's not upset but thinks he may consider alternatives depending on what his grades turn out to be.
