Parents of Year 11s - the end has been and gone

[BitOutOfPractice]

The thread that got us all through the exams is now full so here's a new one to get us through the nervous wait for results

Well done to all our brave Y11s and wish every last one of them all the best

Link to the last thread

Hi everyone, another nervous mother here, just found this thread. DD hasn't slept a wink and can't collect until 10am. She needs A's in Biology, Music and Chemistry to do her first choice of A Levels. I really feel for this generation, the pressure is immense. Congratulations to all those who have already collected! Looks like some amazing results so far.

DD has done brilliantly. A bit teary tbh. No sign of DD2s which was meant to be here by email by now.

Yes he needed 6A's to stay for 6th form and A* in chemistry & biology.
He got a B in physics mock but thanks to Tassomai he got an A*.I'm interested in how everyone else who used Tassomai did?

And we'll done to everyone! It's a bit like the results coming in for the Eurovision song contest!

2A*s, 8As and 1B.

Yeah.

Great results there Exit!

Exit brilliant!

Well done on the results so far. I am trying hard not to be jealous as we have to wait so long for the results. That's it - she's doing BTEC whether she likes it or not - won't have so long to wait in two years' time

Brilliant results exit!
DS has a migraine now - can't say I'm surprised!

7 A's
4 B's.

He's a bit disappointed at no A*'s.

Yay Exit and Still, both fab results!

Sitting in the car. Gulp.

Fingers crossed for you OYBBK.

Good luck kitten xx

I'm sitting in the car too. It's pissing down so I can't even get out and pace around.

Good luck Kitten I'm off for a run now.

Well done everyone who's got results so far. DS is really pleased with his 6 Bs, 3Cs and a Distinction* although a little disappointed with a C in History as he was predicted a B but hoped for an A.

We've been to the shop for warm pastries for breakfast and are just about to make the phone calls to granny etc.

Ds got 4Bs and the rest Cs.
Hes a bit disappointed as he was predicted A's and B's but considering we lost his stepdad to cancer in December i think hes done really well. It could have gone completely pearshaped!

Dd very pleased. Got an A in the one subject she thought she'd done badly in. She was worrried whether she would get the b necessary for 6th form. 2 A* 6 A's and 2 B's.

derek Her one slight disappointment was also the A where she was expecting an A* in food tech. OCR was hers.

DD got 3 As and 8 As!!!
Over the moon for her, she worked so hard and it's paid off!

Well done to all - so good to see so many happy posts!

Congratulations on all the great results - well done to everyone!

DD has mentioned how some friends parents have posted things on Facebook and her 3 friends 1 who didn't get what she wanted are fed up of it one parent has badly worded a post. Told her click unfollow just because she didn't get straight A's it doesn't matter she's got As in her chosen alevel subjects which is great

Another expecting an A* in Food Tech but got an A. Although DD said the exam paper was not too good for her.

3A* 4A 4B, v happy.

I wish I'd found this thread back in June! DS1 got 3As, 5 A's and 3 B's. He got an A in music which he's really chuffed about. I don't know where that comes from as DH and I are both tone deaf.
Congrats to everyone's DCs.
