Countdown to exam results. Anyone else feeling anxious?

[jellybrain]

Waiting for DS1's Gcses results on 22nd of August. He did really well last year but, all the talk of moving grade boundaries has got me worried. Fingers are very tightly crossed for maths as this is the subject he struggles with most.

Tree, congratulations!

What was her total GCSE results in the end?
And how do you request re-marking?

Congrats Tree - what awesome results!

It's good to wake up to the first good news of the day! Very well done to tree (and her DD!)

Good luck everyone else!

Good luck to everyone for today

Fingers crossed for you all. Whatever results you get, be proud of all your hard work over the last two years and respect yourself for it.

TRACK IS UP ***

well done Tree and good luck everyone else!

what the hell do you do if both firm and ins are showing as conditional?

Good luck to all A level students (and parents) today

Ask for advice from 6th form. Get DC to call Uni.
I missed grades for both (but significantly over in points), called my ins as wanted to go there really. They weren't expecting my call, my firm was! Anyway, with some rule bending and putting me on a different course (which I wanted to study in first year as well anyway), I was in.
I did go to a school with a long history of sending students there - that can help.
Admission tutors are aware that sometimes things go wrong! (I did mine pre-AS so hopefully this reassures anyone with DCs starting A-levels in 2015!)

DS's GF has got into the uni of her choice. We are just waiting for DS AS results.

DD didn't get first choice, Manchester but loved her insurance, Newcastle, anyway, so got it there and is very happy! :) am very relieved coz it's been hard as my ds been so unwell for so long, had big impact on her.

DD1 got her first choice. I am so relieved. Good luck to everyone!

Well ds1 has walked in with his mates.

He's admitted to nerves and he's never nervous.

I've just told him what will be will be and if they're better than expected then that is a bonus.

Good luck this morning dc's and parents everywhere!

Tree brilliant and congratulations to your dd!

MABS - congratulations :)

Sorry to hear DS still poorly.

Bruffins gf and Chopchop - yay!!

DS got in his first choice - Warwick. Scored A*AAB - very proud of him.

DS1 got his first choice but don't know the grades yet.
Hugely delighted

DS1 just phoned, not good .

Well, job hunting starts after V.

Mine are too young for A Levels but am thinking of you all waiting on grades and crossing my fingers for you.

Well done on all those A*/A's already! Woot!!!

DD is in tears. She is very disappointed with her AS results .

ds got into first choice with A*AAA. So proud of him and relieved. I can stop with the gin now
He's off to Bristol to do Physics like his dad his years ago!
