Thanks!

Such a relief.
Shes not naturally bright (unlike her brother who is Rain Man frightening) and has to work at it.
Her teachers expected something like this but actually achieving it is fantastic.

Heard some guy interviewed on LBC... he got 7 A*s, 12 As and 1 B. Irrespective of the questionable difficulty of the exams... did he have time to sleep or eat?

I failed it on purpose. It's a personal thing. I wasn't go to put that on here but I can't have people thinking I fooked up an easy exam by accident!

Not that I'm trying to save myself from the shame, but we think there's been a cock up as the majority of people got a D, but we all had the same mark of 034 which is very odd.

I'm still waiting to hear from my two son's on their results. I think they've gone into hiding.
So far I have not heard any good results from any of their mates either.

IMHO I think the whole education system needs a bloody good shake up.

Nervous times eh. Fingers crossed though.

The thing is with me though is that my daughters school is closing down (they've not had an intake this year), so the standard of teaching, as staff have left and temps have been used, has been 'questionable' to say the least! So, with the exception of say 3 subjects, most of her attainments have been down to her.

My OH sister got 11 GCSE's, 10 at A and 1 at A*

There is another thread running in NP&E for all the haters (I am kind of one myself) but in this particular instance I have first hand knowledge of the amount of effort, work and time spent revising she has done

Dont hate, congratulate

It is really.
But I know the slog shes put it in for her particular results so I'm not thinking about that aspect of it.
