Exam results 2024

Thought I'd get started on the exam results thread as we have a month to go!
I think, as a parent, I'm more nervous about this year (Highers) than last year (N5) as the Higher results will influence university applications.
DD tells me she's not thinking about her exams, but then she throws into conversation how 'super smart' her friends are and how they will probably get As, and also has asked me if our postcode is eligible for widening access (it isn't) so it appears to me that she IS thinking / worrying about her results.
We do have a holiday coming up which will hopefully help us all relax.
How are other kids doing?

4 A and a B at Higher. She's now crying hysterically as she says it's not enough for university. Can't even get through how proud we are of her for all the screaming from her room

Well done to her. That is definitely enough for university!

TerfsWereRight · 06/08/2024 08:10

Nothing here yet …

1234Kitty · 06/08/2024 08:11

Nothing with us yet. Surname at the back of the alphabet though.

birdsoeking · 06/08/2024 08:11

We’ve done alright here. B, C and D. Plus passes in Nat 4.

HigherUp · 06/08/2024 08:11

Nowt here - were wondering if she’s still asleep???

TerfsWereRight · 06/08/2024 08:12

Not sure whether DD’s are slow to come through or if she’s got them and doesn’t want to tell us. Which means bad news. She’s def awake.

OKherewegoagain · 06/08/2024 08:13

So we received a blank email !!!??????

StrictlyPrue · 06/08/2024 08:13

My DD has her phone turned off as she prefers a good nights sleep so no idea when she will surface. Just hoping for some Nat5 passes here, she struggles a lot and it would give her confidence a much needed boost.
Well done to those so far :-)

Misthios · 06/08/2024 08:15

DS has said I can wake him at 8.30. We are waiting for Nat 5 results. He is worried about Biology and Maths. Biology doesn't really matter, but really needs to get a B in Maths or he'll be resitting.

Wonkywinky · 06/08/2024 08:15

Blank email here!
Anyone else .

EsmeShelby · 06/08/2024 08:16

Amelanchier · 06/08/2024 08:16

ChocoChocoLatte · 06/08/2024 08:16

One pleased, one mixed bag results ....

Amelanchier · 06/08/2024 08:17

Waiting on Nat 5s.

HigherUp · 06/08/2024 08:17

Omg torture - we haven’t heard off ours yet - I hope it’s not a blank - WTF??!

cazzyg · 06/08/2024 08:18

Happy here. One shock B where an A was predicted but As for all other subjects including maths

SheGotOffThePlane · 06/08/2024 08:18

My DC missed the deadline to sign up for the texts, so I'm waiting on the postie 😭

Vettrianofan · 06/08/2024 08:18

3 passes, one fail.

OKherewegoagain · 06/08/2024 08:18

Still nothing but a blank email wtf SQA

Misthios · 06/08/2024 08:19

Sounds like the SQA have fucked up - again - with blank emails!

Desertislanddiscs · 06/08/2024 08:21

Blank email received here too. What a let down.

TheGirlOnTheLanding · 06/08/2024 08:21

Very happy here. DD all smiles but now back in bed! I hope all of you who got a blank email get a proper email soon and the postie gets to everyone before lunchtime.

TerfsWereRight · 06/08/2024 08:21

Nothing here yet but several of DD’s friends have got blank emails!
