Finishing year 13 in 2017

[HSMMaCM]

Hi all. Keep in touch with uni offers, new jobs, gap years, exams, etc. We can get through his

It is torture!

At least dd is asleep and has been very philosophical about results day.

A level results email due in 2 minutes, but not allowed to read it till DD has...

Is she awake EmilyD? Good Luck!

Got to sleep about 3, woken at 5 because a certain teen has opened their window and door which is now banging in the breeze..... they, of course, are sleeping through it.

Good morning everybody!
I hope you all receive good new today. The long wait is nearly over and yes, it is torture!

This last bit is awful.

As usual ds is sound asleep nothing keeps him awake or wakes him once he has gone off to sleep. He has always been a deep sleeper.
No doubt I will have to wake him this morning if he hasn't set his alarm.
I am not usually a worrier but do feel anxious I wish the waiting was over!

Ooh Emily! You will be the first!

I am suddenly really really envious of people whose DC have Unconditional offers...

Phew, after four looong minutes I was allowed to open my email. Firm choice offer met. Yay!

Oh well done Emily's dd!

Well Done Emily!

Late crasher to the thread - DS got three As, but is gutted because his offer was A*AA.

Will he still get in do you think?

What world are we living in when 3As is disappointing?

I'm so bloody proud of him but he's morose.

Congratulations, Emily. I hope we have some more of the same on here this morning.

Great news

MumBod, sorry I don't know - you will probably have to wait for an email or Track to open. But three As is amazing. Has he checked emails?

Sorry he's not happy MumBod - fab grades though, Well Done to him.

I've been awake since 5:30 but leaving DS to sleep because his school doesn't open for results until 9am. I'm definitely more worried about DS's results than I was for my own! That's mad isn't it

Fingers crossed for everyone.

How is it that some students get their results three hours before others? It's not exactly a level playing field if they need to start phoning round. It wasn't one of the criteria we asked about when looking at sixth forms - 'how quickly do you release A level results on the day??'!

Thanks all - checking as we speak. He did have extenuating circumstances while he was sitting, and they said this would be taken into account, so fingers crossed.

Good luck everyone.

That's a good point Liney. Some schools/colleges email the grades out to students, others request the students collect in person.

DS has to physically collect his, and we've had the usual rail SNAFU lately. So that'll add to the drama.

She's done it! Email from firm. And on the masters ( higher grades needed)

Ooh nice one, dingit. Hope her boyfriend is ok too.

Congratulations dingit's DD and the others whose results are in. They all sound good to me!
