DD has just got her A levels results - she got 5 As and will be going to Exeter University to do Psychology.

Can't get hold of DH, as he's driving to work, so I have to tell you lot instead!

Fantastic. What a clever girl!

Congratulations RustyBear DD. Have fun at Uni.

twentypence · 14/08/2008 08:24

Well done to your dd - that's an amazing result and you have every right to be proud.

traceybath · 14/08/2008 08:25

Well done! They're fab.

Simply · 14/08/2008 08:25

Oh congratulations to her! Well done. She must have worked extremely hard to achieve those results. As an aside, I know of someone who is studying Psychology and she finds it fascinating.

Twinkie1 · 14/08/2008 08:28

Wow - wot a clever girl - congratulations to your DD (and you on having such a clever daughter!).

The sixth form college has a website where you can log in & see your results straight away - she will have to go in & pick up the paper confirmation later on.

oh I am just asking as dd is getting gcse results next week and has to be on a bus to Reading at 10am so unsure if the results will be here on time

When DD did GCSEs they picked them up from school about 9 am I think (different school)
If the school has a website you might be able to find out when they'll be available - could she go there on the way to the bus?

Hope she enjoys Reading - DD is looking forward to it.

Well done to dd RusyBear! ds2 is off to collect his AS results this morning. We're not expecting 4 As though, bless him.

Lilymaid · 14/08/2008 09:01

Fantastic news for your DD. Of course, she is going to the best university (as I believe you know!)

SqueakyPop · 14/08/2008 09:04

My DS did one AS this year and he can't be bothered going into school to get the result. He figures he only has one more day to wait for it to come in the post tomorrow.

He will be picking up his GCSE results next week though.

VanillaPumpkin · 14/08/2008 09:04

Oh well done your DD!!! And yes she is off to the best Uni . I hope she has a ball!!! I did, oh and worked very hard of course in between.

So you've got to do it all again in a few years! At least I've only got their university exams to worry about now (DS will be in his final year at Warwick next year...)
