Well the results are in and I'm so proud. A 9 in History (her favourite subject), 8s in Biology, Chemistry, Eng Lang, Maths, Physics and Religious Studies, 7 in Art and Eng Lit and a 6 in the dreaded French.

Daughter is buzzing as am I 😀 well done to all your DCs.

Holidayshopping · 23/08/2018 09:54

Did anyone’s DC do AQA graphics? DS got an A* but it says it’s 8.5 points-that’s rather random!

I thought an A* was 9 points?

brainmelt · 23/08/2018 09:56

Can't remember all the names but amazing justice always kingscote cherry ahhk sorry everyone I forogt but I have to rush to show.

DS Just called with 8A*s and 2x 9's 💃💃💃💃💃!!!

brainmelt · 23/08/2018 09:57

loose well done !!!

KittiesInsane · 23/08/2018 09:58

Urgh, getting nervous here. DD always tends to underperform in exams. She’s better at real life.

KickBishopBrennanUpTheArse · 23/08/2018 09:59

Omg she's gone in. We've been repeating all the way here "2 x 6s and 4 x 4s" which is the minimum entry for sfc.

Then she suddenly said what if I don't get that Shock

I feel sick Envy

Sitting in car park..,
DS is heartened by all your 9s in history
Well done everyone!

Eagle Deva & anyone else that I've missed, well done. I will continue to man our thread whilst waiting for DD to emerge from her room.

Theworldisfullofgs · 23/08/2018 10:04

My dd did amazing
1×5, 3x7, 4x8 and 3x9
She can go to her first choice 6th form!

spababe · 23/08/2018 10:09

My DS got into the selective 6th form with the 8's that he needed. Very pleased. Congratulations to all DS on here. Remember if yours did not get what they needed there is always a plan B. My other DS had a big problem with his AS last year but we went for a plan B and now he has the Uni place he wanted this year.

Stickerrocks · 23/08/2018 10:09

1 x 8 , 2 x7, 5 x6, and a 5 in maths and english -! He massively struggles with both those! and was so worried about them.

Hope everyone gets what they need and will be doing cartwheels in the garden Smile
