My ED got an A in her RS half course, and A*s in her biology, chemistry and physics year 10 modules for triple science and an A and another A* in her yr 10 maths modules to go with the A* that she got ealier in the year. She is very happy and we are very proud.

I took English Language and RE a year early back in 1983 . Anybody taking music also did it a year early.

 

I went to an all girls grammar school and the reasoning behind it at our school was that ASs could be taken early or extra O levels could be taken if the courses couldn't be fitted in with the original timetable. They used to encourage people wanting to go into medicine or veterinary sciences to do a 1 year latin O level course during this time.

[ubereglu]

Well Done to everybody.

 

The reasoning to why we took Maths a year earlier was because we needed stretching and challenging as we were so good. There were 16 people in our class and 13 people achieved A* and the other 3 got As.

[BarbaraJ]

well done everyone, times have changed when i went to a catholic girls school only one girl got 8 A's (O levels). It amazes me that without much effort my daughter got 8b's and 2 a's few years ago.

was it a Liverpool grammar school Jan? I went to Bellerive convent grammar.

In other words we were getting bored!

[chooklady]

Congratulations to everyone, I wish you all well with whatever you are doing next.

 

My Daugther got 4 B's, 4 C's and a D I think I've missed a couple.

 

She is off to college on a catering course, she starts on the 8th.

 

She has completely changed in the last few weeks, because her life is changng so much, she's got a moped to get her to college and today she has started working in Waitrose so it's all change for her. I'm really proud of her.

[Happy chickens!]

Very well done! And if you haven't posted 'cos it didn't work out as well as you'd hoped, remember it will all be water under the bridge in a few years - it's a (very) long time since anyone asked me what I got for 'o' levels!

I went to Convent of Mercy (Broughton Hall) in West Derby. My Mum went to Bellerive.

 

Small world!

so did my mum

[TheGirlsMum]

That's really true, alot of people on here seem to be very talented at passing exams, the main thing is that you attain your potential. The world wouldn't function with all accademics.

 

Be proud of your own achievements.

[Cate in NZ]

Some great results there and a whole heap of people who have every right to be massively proud of themselves or their family members, so very, very well done to you all.

I agree though, not everyone will have results that they want to boast about...it seems to me that the Omlet forum has a disproportionate number of very academically able youngsters, and there's nowt wrong with that, credit where credit's due for all that hard work, and good GCSE results will no doubt smooth the pathway for continued academic study. But well done to everyone who survived the whole GCSE experience, regardless of results, it's a demanding, stressful time and not everyone is capable of achieving the top grades...thank goodnes. Academic high achievers are very much needed, but so are those who are practical, artistic, kind & caring.....even if they don't possess a whole heap of GCSEs

So, huge congratulations to you all

My darling offspring are taking their exams in November this year, Immy's got NCEA1's (GCSE equivalents) Seb's got NCEA2's (AS equivalents) but there just isn't the same pressure to get good results over here...whole different mentality. Seb should be working for exams but today he flew down down to Nelson (S.Island) to represent the school in the Soccer National Tournament...so much more important- for the school - than boring old exams .

[keyhole kate]

She got

 

an A the rest B's double awards science etc b/c s

Not bad not as good as she could have done though

but there are kids who will have done a hell of a lot worse

so all in all we are pleased

[Valkyrie]

Congrats to all with wonderful passes, commiserations to those who haven't got what they wanted, but remember Alan Sugar is now a Lord, so some people get to the top without qualifications. Probably helps if you are a little ruthless, so maybe not the best example.

 

Albert Einstein was not too good at school, but look what he did (my hero)!

[Seagazer]

Congratulations to everyone but I also second (or should that be third) what Cate in NZ and Koojie say. In life you can achieve more usually by hard work and a good attitude than qualifications.
