Results...

[Immenseman]

I know for GCSEs and 6th form/college students results come in August. Are you nervous/excited about yours?

How do you think you did?

[LuketheDuke]

Probs bout average, maybs an A and 2 B's perhaps a little better.

I know A levels is 20th August, are GCSE's earlier or later?

[Immenseman]

GCSEs are always a week later so they'll be on the 27th. I'm in year 12 at the moment. I've done like 50% of my sociology and psychology with 2 A grades. I've got English Lit coursework results back, which is 40% of overall grade and got an A also. Fourth choice is History... no clue as of yet. That was 100% June exams. Fingers crossed.

[myke]

my results come in 28th.

i'm feeling pretty good about the outcome... time will tell.

[Tooplee]

For my GCSE's last year, I wasn't expecting good grades but I ended up getting 5 A*'s, 4 A's and 2 B's :] woo. This year I've only done exams for my AS Maths cos in my national diploma, it's 100% coursework.

[Dinosaurawrr]

i have no idea when my college results come.
im excited but
i know what i got lol
im getting a overall B
cos i made sure i had enough points by counting everything up and upgrading it all
and passed my exam :]
so technically im qualified in childcare just need my cetificate 2 prove lol x]

[Samantha.]

I'm kinda confident with most my subjects :)
but theres the odd 2 or 3 i'm like OMG FAIL ;[

[Immenseman]

i don't think gcses are that important providing you get english, maths and science. they just get you into 6th form/college.

[Inseriousity.]

I'm gonna say I did crap because in January, I felt really good and got Cs. A C is okay but because I was feeling confident, it was a disappointment so yeah I did crap (don't even need to pretend for French though, terrible exams :(). I'm not gonna predict but here's hoping for a nice examiner! :D

[brandon]

I'm anticipating a good few C's and D's. Not happy.

[Soy]

Only decent grades I had for gcse were for Drama RE PE English Science

[Sad3k..]

I come out the exams feleing good but some days i feel im gunna do well and other days i sit there feeling scared not sure what 2 do.

It hits me pratically everyday that i might fail nd need 2 retake the whole year. It scares me so much

Uni resulyts come ou last week and this week and some came in may

im predicting my slef AABC or AAAD

[Toughened]

Let's see, I'm hoping/predicted for...

1 A* (Performing Arts)
3 A's (Biology, Art, Graphics)
4 B's (English Language, English Literature, Maths, Science Core)
3 C's (Geograpy, PE, RE)

[Immenseman]

yeah my sister got a 2:1 at uni (whatever that means) for her second year she was happy anyway

[Robbie]

For GCSE I reckon I've got all As or B's except Maths where I reckon I've got a D :'(

[Samantha.]

i don't think gcses are that important providing you get english, maths and science. they just get you into 6th form/college.

i'm rubbish at science though ;[
FAILED MUCH

[Immenseman]

U CAN DO IT.

[Callum.]

i'm mixed feeling really.

don't think I gave the correct amount of preperation so really let myself down there. but the a levels I wanted to do have really low requirements, so that won't be a problem. I'm hoping majority B's although I know I could have easily got A in most given I prepared.

my head of year was always going on about revising, people always said you'd regret it if you didn't do a lot, but at the time I thought the hour a night was fine. then having 10 weeks off after exams, I think there's no reason why that couldn't have been 2 3 or 4 hrs.

[Immenseman]

regardless of how much you revise i always find you will look back and think you could have done that little bit more. at the time you didn't want to and that's understandable, revising isn't fun. i hardly revised for my gcses and still got 10 A-C so it's kk.

[CJW93]

27th August. I suck big time at maths if i get a d in it i will jump for joy

[Immenseman]

im crap at maths too, luckily i passed because most places want a C in english and maths

[Hecktix]

Absolutely ******** myself, had a bit of trouble during my exams :(

[Immenseman]

it's ok, should you fail you can remain hx staff.

[Johno]

very worried about my results, guess I will see what I got when the time comes.

[RandomManJay]

Don't worry too much about getting your results, you can always stay back (if your sixth form allows it) and take your resits, also it reflects badly when you get yourself so worked up and it doesn't make the days move any quicker :P. I know I got really worked up and started snapping at people at random, then when it came to getting my results I just didn't care, I basically wore myself out :(, I wasn't even excited to get into sixth form. It just sets you up for further failure if you get poor results or a pessimistic outlook if you get positive results. Also GCSE's really aren't that important, they're just to get you into further education etc. they're a lot like A-levels, only they're worth a bit more since they're the qualifications to get you into uni.

Anyways, I got my results for uni I think a couple of weeks ago, I got a 2.1 (1st year), so I'm hoping you all get good results as well, good luck!

[alexxxxx]

think im gonna get AABBC in my exams i HOPE

which would mean overall

AABB in first year. =D

[PaulMacC]

Im expecting A's in Media, ICT and maybe Religion. The rest B's and C's. I think I've failed Double Science though :P

[N!ck]

I'm not particularly looking forward to getting my a-level results. I need 3 A's to meet my Uni offer and I'm only confident I've got an A in one of my subjects. The other two are a bit meh. One I'm about 70% an A, 30% a B and the other about 30% an A, 70% a B so oh dear :(.

[-:Undertaker:-]

Maths D or C
English B or A
Science D or C
History B or A
Geography C
Travel & Tourism C
RE C or B
ICT C

[Soka]

excited, think i did alright in most.

physics, i suspect is going to be a toss a coin situation for the grade. :eusa_wall

[clueless]

i havnt really thought about them really (gcse's)
im intruiged tho i guess
i reckon i did okay, im really interested to see my art grade

[Charlottay!]

i no i failed a few of my gcse exams.
im intrigued to no but im in no rush to find them out.
that cud change though as result date gets closer

[Kipp]

I think I've done well, I'm expecting B's and C's

[Keri?!]

well i got my report lately..
8 B's and 2 C's

[@K]

regardless of how much you revise i always find you will look back and think you could have done that little bit more. at the time you didn't want to and that's understandable, revising isn't fun. i hardly revised for my gcses and still got 10 A-C so it's kk.

I did NO revising for mine and recieved 1 A 1 B 5 C's and 3 D's, I actually got slapped by my maths teacher because I was expected all A*'s and A's with the odd B exception :P

[Pyroka]

I would anticipate I had a DMM in my BTEC... only because I know that.

[Wahey]

I'm bricking it!:(

[JACKTARD]

I get my results in a year and a bit, in year 10 atm but predicted straight A*'s

[Toughened]

I get my results in a year and a bit, in year 10 atm but predicted straight A*'s

Just wait till next year...

[Immenseman]

im kinda nervous when i think about it. i had no pressure at gcses but there is pressure now. i over achieved a lot in my gcses and im expected to do it again and again even though my predicated grades are low. i'd be gutted with my predictions. everyone is like "easily 4 As for you" don't realise the pressure :@ i'd be happy with like ABBC or something similar although all four A levels im doing my teachers have told me I could and should be getting an A.

[Suspective]

Good Luck guys.

[PaulMacC]

Eh, the nerves are starting to creep up on me.

[Abbie.]

ive failed my alevels so im already ok for when i open it haha

[Immenseman]

just over 3 weeeeeeeks for me. like a month today for gcses. well it will be one month exactly for all you gcse students tomorrow. but 20th for alevels.

[PaulMacC]

Im relying on A's in ICT, Religion and Digital Media (double) to get me back into 6th form.
The only thing that worries me is that my Digital Media teacher was a complete stoner and he might have given us the wrong stuff to work on, he was also my english teacher. I need either English/Maths to get back in, I got an A in my english cwk but Im bad at the exams. I also needed 50% in my maths test to bag a C but Im bad at maths so I doubt I got it

[mike475]

im gonna have a load of really high grade results (A* - B) and low end results (D - E); my only C will be english.
hopefully anyway :L

[Catzsy]

yeah my sister got a 2:1 at uni (whatever that means) for her second year she was happy anyway

Thats a very good degree. Upper level of honours. Just off a first. Not many get that.

[Immenseman]

awesome.

[Wahey]

Crap crap crap, next week is my results i think, August the 3rd or summin :(

[pigeons]

I can't wait to find mine out even if they're bad, atleast I can stop worrying then.

[LoveToStack]

Hoping for AAABC. Will never happen...

[luce]

I have some GCSEs coming that i took early and some modules i don't want anything below an A if im honest so if i get it i'm retaking :):)

Geography if i drop more then 4 marks my teacher is making us re-take so LOL.

I think i'm only getting one result i can't re-take which is my full GCSE PE and i went into the exam with an A so i would have had to go horribly wrong to get anything lower then A*.

This time next year it will be a diffrent story though when im waiting for my weaker subjects like French

[Soy]

What's the board for the PE course your taking

[Skajo]

i am cacking myself now actually lol

[Immenseman]

adam lol you said like two days ago you didn't care.

[Soka]

i am cacking myself now actually lol

as am I.

I actually dreamt i'd got them the other night, and failed.

[le harry]

why are you getting results in august o_O the uk schooling system is so weird

[Technologic]

why are you getting results in august o_O the uk schooling system is so weird

Well it does take a while to mark like.. 800,000 papers. Each person gets about 3000 papers to mark

[Kardan]

I'm thinking I did ok for my GCSEs. I'm hoping I don't get a B or below, but I'm fine with RE being a B and I think my Physics might have dropped down to a B :(

As for my AS Maths result, I'm really hoping it's a B as that means I can go onto A2 next year, a year early, and re-take the AS at the same time, if I get a C it means I have to retake the AS Maths year again even though I know all the stuff, it's just a fact of revising more :/

Yes. So all in all, I'm hoping for good results.

I've already got 3 A*-C GCSEs anyway, so that pratically guarantees my sixth form place... Just need two more :)

[Skajo]

adam lol you said like two days ago you didn't care.
i know it's weird

[StefanWolves]

looking for B's in English, Business, and IT, maybe maths, Cs in the other subjects will do.

But I practically gave up on RE and TECH to focus on all my other subjects, so I'm not expecting much for those... ;)

[cocaine]

A's, B's, and one or two A*'s (:

[Meanies]

I hadn't thought about em until i read this ;o
I want an A in ict and media and think i might've managed it
Probably get a C in english because thats all i got in the essays in lessons (H)
And psychology.. god knows. I think I did alright though so hopefully atleast a C.

[Johno]

five days till I get mine and I am absolutely ******** myself, I reckon I have messed most of mine up but I guess I will see when they finally arrive in the post or by text!

[Robbie]

Why do you get yours so early :'(

[Wahey]

Mines comes this week :'( I'm bricking it gaawd:(

[jackass]

I want an 'A*' in Maths, an 'A' in Physics and Business Studies, and B's in everything else. :) (Minimum!)

[Immenseman]

lol i'd be happy with like ABBB or summet

[RandomManJay]

I've got my Research Methods 1 resit in two weeks (I missed the first exam :(), I have to travel 174miles to sit a 1 hour exam, then head back home (lol). I'm probably gonna pass it, I got 12/15 for my coursework and 14/15 in my Research Methods 2 exam.

[Wahey]

Tomorrows result day for us Scottish people, dunno about you people :'(

[Immenseman]

20th for alevels. 27th for gcse in england.

gl for u scots 2moz xox

[leah]

just over 3 weeeeeeeks for me. like a month today for gcses. well it will be one month exactly for all you gcse students tomorrow. but 20th for alevels.
same for me :D:D

[-paul.]

im kinda excited to see how i did

but if i fail my school do a national deploma in ict which equals an Alevel i believe so if i fail ill do that :)

[Thrived]

GCSEs are always a week later so they'll be on the 27th. I'm in year 12 at the moment. I've done like 50% of my sociology and psychology with 2 A grades. I've got English Lit coursework results back, which is 40% of overall grade and got an A also. Fourth choice is History... no clue as of yet. That was 100% June exams. Fingers crossed.

I was tempted to do Sociology next year, I wasnt sure whether it would be a good course to do (Considering ive already got a GCSE in it and they told me its very similiar).

Personally I think my GCSE's went good overall, I made a few silly mistakes in History but because my coursework in my subjects is A/A* i think even with the mistakes I can still hope to recieve a good grade.. Im quite nervous though as in my mocks i did quite well and i'd be so unhappy if i got lower than them! 27th feels like ages away, I just wanna get them over with and then go to 6th form! My best exams by far were Sociology, English and ICT. One subject I fail at is Maths and im really hoping for a B, if i get a B i will actually 'IRL' jump for joy.

[Johno]

Not at all happy with mine, thought I would have at least gotten an A in Computing or Physics :(

Computing: B
Physics: B
Maths: C
Int. 2 English: B

But I suppose they could have been much worse...

[Arron]

[Nxrissa]

A few of my friends failed it, I'm surprised I got a C tbh.

I messed up my english so I have no idea how I got a B, I wrote the wrong essay (I pretty much went through what happened in the book, and it had like no relation to the question) - Oh well!

[Immenseman]

congrats to those who have their results and done well. to those who haven't done so well, it's not the end of the world. go out tonight and get wasted, drown ya sorrows.

[Mickword]

Im really happy because since I'm in year 9 well was, I done one of my maths GCSE's and then if I fail, then I get to do it again LOL.

[colourpot]

[Angel-Light]

Congrats to everyone with their results. I'm glad I don't have to go through that torture as I only have to wait like a month after I have done my exams to get results :P

Good luck to those whose results are coming up :P

they're 4th year results, everyone has to do them + you get them according to which level you sit & you normally sit 2 levels

1-2 = credit
3-4 = general
5-6 = foundation

they're not really equivalent to a's or b's

A-level results day is two Thursdays before the August bank holiday, which is the same as two Thursdays before the last Monday in August. Thus, 2008 and 2009 both fit this pattern. It just happens that the bank holiday this year is also the last day in august, so its so damn late. :(

I don't know whether to check track first, or just go get my results and not bother checking online before hand.

[Immenseman]

13 dayssssssss :( nervous when i think about it ha

August 27th - We go to the school and collect the rest of our results.
I need 10 points to get back into school plus a pass in either English/Maths
A* = 4 points
C = 1 point
I think if I pass maths or english I'll get in as Im hoping for an A in ICT and two A's in Digital Media.
So nervous though >_<

this time in 6 days i'll be happy or depressed :P

there is no middle. if i've done OK that is depressing, i like to excel.

[N!ck]

I'm ******** it.

Best case Scenario I get:

Physics - A
Maths - A
Psychology - A

Which means I get in to my firm choice uni.

Worst case (which I think is likely as I screwed up some of my exam papers):

Physics - A
Maths - B
Psychology - B

Which means I don't get in to my insurance choice (AAB) either and I'm screwed. I'm really hoping for AAB so I at least get in to my insurance and then I can phone my firm choice and see if there's any lee-way and persuade them into letting me in anyway.

[jackass]

Best case scenario for me...
Maths - A*
Business Studies - A
Physics - A

Worst case...
Maths - B
Business Studies - C
Physics - B

[Soka]

Best case scenario for me...
Maths - A*
Business Studies - A

and Nick, your doing a degree in physics aren't you? so your firm are more likely to let you in if you get AAB, but with one of the As in physics. I'm least confident with physics and hate to predict what i'm going to get because i always get it terribly wrong.

I got my CIE GCSEs back last Friday:

Economics: A*
English Literature: A
English Language: A*
Biology: A*
Chemistry: A*
Physics: A*

Including the ones I got last year (French, German, Chinese and Maths), I'm at 9 A*s and 1 A, with Geography coming out on the 27th. I think basically all my classmates got either the same for English language and English literature or the latter better. Somehow I'm the only person with language better than literature...

German and Maths AS results the day after...

Wow, your really lucky! I wish I was an a* student :(

[DieselShaq]

Wow, your really lucky! I wish I was an a* student :(
It's not only luck. Of course, slighty luck was needed for literature and economics since I needed a leniant person marking my papers.

[Fifteen]

Tomorrow!

[Wahey]

Good luck you people

[Soka]

Tracks now frozen and updating.

I'm now nervous. :eusa_whis:(

[iJoe]

Today :)

I know I've failed 2 of mine, only thing I'm nervous of is getting into a college in September as I can't carry on in the 6th form I'm at now with 2 u's in physics / maths and either a b/c in ict

Annoyed at this stupid online system though not going live at midnight! Want to confirm my maths mark :P

[MrPinkPanther]

10.30 I collect mine. Poo.

[Kardan]

Getting mine at 11. God I feel ill, it's only 1 AS result aswell :(

[Chippiewill]

You can get your results now from the UCAS website by seeing what you got into...

My sister didn't get in :(

[Inseriousity.]

I got my results at 10. average... :(

Sociology - A
Psychology - C
French - D
RE - D

I'm really gutted about RE. It's my favourite subject but pleased I scraped an A in sociology :D

[Kardan]

Right, off to collect my AS Maths now.

A Grade - Do A2 Maths a year early
C and below Grade - Retaking AS year again
B Grade - God knows.

[drama]

gcse results a week today, predicting myself a bunch of A*'s and D's

[Meanies]

I got a d in english language, c in media, c in ict and c in psychology lol

english paper 1 - d (64 - out of 100 presumably)
english paper 2 - d (43)
i might resit that though

ict paper 1 - b (76)
ict paper 2 - d (58)
might resit paper 2 if i can just resit one

psychology paper 1 - c (68)
psychology paper 2 - d (57)
im dropping psychology anyway and didnt care about it by the time exams came and did better in that than english when i tried??

media coursework - a (80/100)
media exam - d (54/100)
i knew id do well in the coursework though cus i spent ******* ages on it. might resit exam though. unless i have to redo coursework aswell

was expecting better tbh.
but in one day i had 3 exams so that's partly to blame. stuck in a freezing cold room from 9 til half 4 and only going out once to go to the toilet? well i blame that anyway for my ict paper 2, psychology paper 2 and english paper 2 :)

[Kardan]

B in AS Maths. Not pleased with it to be honest, now I have to decide whether I retake my AS next year, or retake my AS next year whilst doing my A2 a year early.

OVERALL: B

Core 1: 73, B
Core 1 Retake: 49, E
Core 2: 60, C
Decision 1: 79, B

B, C, B - Overall, B.

I was supposed to be doing AS French aswell this year but pulled out because I was terrible. Our stupid teacher convinced everyone else they could get an A if they tried, the best grade was a D, then an E and everyone else got U's.

[Soka]

A2
A - Accounting
A - Maths
A - Further Maths
A - Physics - so ******* pleased with that.
C - General Studies :rolleyes:

absolutely proud of myself, i worked so hard and it paid off.

[Zilchozo]

i'm really worried about my results next week :S I already have a B, C and a D :( i'm hoping t0 get an A and A* to make it a whole set :P
I am hoping to get around B's because then i will be happy :) c's i will probably be dissapointed in and i have to get B's or above in English, History and Drama to get to the A levels i wanted :(

[Kardan]

Ahh, next week :/ I've got 8 GCSEs to get next week, already got 3... Blergh, I'll kick myself if I get one B >.<

[Jordy]

I feel your pain, B's are rather annoying particularly in modular exams as it's neither here nor there on whether to retake them.

Well done to everyone so far =]

[N!ck]

A - Maths
A - AS Further Maths
A - Physics
B - Psychology (11 UMS off an A)

My General Studies modules are epic. AUAAAU all A's and U's lol.

Going to The University of Manchester to study Physics :).

[Bevvie]

Well done geeks :D
lol anyway i dont think that much people did well in my sixthform, only the super clever one. Bit disappointed with mine.

Art = B

Chemistry :
Unit 1 - B
Unit 2 - C

What exam board is your Maths? Mine is Edexcel and I got...

Core 1: 100

I'm going to get a remark for statistics because I'm sure I got at least 90.

Lol i got..
Core 1 retake: 64, C
Core 1: 47, E

Maths isn't "very" hard. It's definitely not easy but I wouldn't even consider it as "hard". Since Maths is so black and white, you basically just have to keep practicing. By the way, which examination board do you do?

[Fifteen]

AS Double ICT - BB :D I thought I was going to get CD, when I opened my results I actully cried :rolleyes:

I don't get my Business Studies results until next year as it is a BTEC.

Next year I am doing A2 Double ICT, Business Studies and taking up AS Communications or computing..:)

AQA. But my bad results are on the class really. Because we're in Year 11 we had to take it early, but the whole class didn't want to take it. So our class was split into two. 8 of us, including me, did AS Maths with GCSE Statistics. We only got 2 lessons a week doing AS Maths, where I think if I do it again next year (which is most likely since B is crap) then I'll get 4 lessons a week.

So, I think a B is reasonable for having half the class time, our teacher was off all winter term because his son passed away, and my bad retake was because I had Core 2 straight before the Core 1 exam :P

So I'm retaking the whole AS, I'll have much more class time, I already know my stuff aswell, it's just that I need to revise more :)

So yeah, really angry with my B :@

[Soy]

B for computing A for PE B Drama C English

[LuketheDuke]

did terribly, dropped grades in 2 subjects but i still managed to get into my firm.

A - philosophy
B - history
C - gov&pol

I'm in Year 11 as well and planning to do further AS. Do you know the procedures of getting a remark?

My friend in Year 12 got 300/300 for Edexcel physics X.X

[Tristan]

U in Human Biology which I dropped.

A in Media Studies.
(A in Coursework, B in exam).

C in PE.
(D in practical, B in exam - just off overall B).

E in Psychology.

D in General Studies.


Happy with mine tbh, wish I got the B in PE though.

[Jordy]

Awesome range of subjects for Politics there.

[LuketheDuke]

doing American Studies @ Manchester.

in the course il be doing all 3 of them subjects so it works out i reckon.

..computing was hard, OCR it was anyone else do it?

[dirrty]

i was well worried about what i'd get, but i'm more than happy with what i got really.

I think he means, for his firm university choice rather than a firm.

My friend in Year 12 got 300/300 for Edexcel physics X.X

Thats awesome to get 300/300 lol. I know a dude who got 600/600 in computing, and 570+/600 in his other 4 A Levels!

To get a remark you need to get a form, fill it in with unit details etc. and tick various boxes on whether you want to receive a photocopy of a remarked paper, you can't ask for a copy of original script though if your having a remark for obvious reasons. :P

You get your money back if the grade changes on the module. I had a physics paper remarked last year at AS because i was very close to the A boundary, and knew i'd done better on the paper after seeing a leaked markscheme. The marking was horrendous and i went up to A at AS overall, getting the £39 pound back. The main reason for getting a remark was because it helped tremendously with my UCAS APP.

If i were you, from looking at your grades I wouldn't bother wasting £39 getting it remarked and just resit it and nail it to get 100 UMS (which it looks like your more than capable of) as your only in year 11, so you've got all of next year before you apply for uni, rather than just going up a few marks if there was some dodgy marking.

Anyways, you should be able to get the new A* grade in maths for sure at A Level, wish it was available for me as I would have got it in maths and further maths. I didn't post my UMS's earlier so i'll post 'em now.

I'm more excited than nervous really, as there's nothing I can do now but wait :D.

[Rozi]

Just waiting for my statistics and RE short course results :( Quite nervous now :(

[Immenseman]

feels like i made this thread ages ago :)

in my 4 AS levels i achieved AAAB

2.5% off straight As *screams*

gna retake my b anyways :)

remember i was predicted 2 cs and 2 ds

dead surprised i got an A in eng lit tho

[Leighanne.]

I did pretty good, well.. Alot better than I was expecting. :eusa_danc

[Nicola]

3 days to go!
Well done everyone who's got their results, looking through the thread I've seen some very impressive ones :)

[Krypsis]

Absolutely screwed my AS's up.

That's all I'm saying :/

[Technologic]

Ack. Tension is killing me

[Immenseman]

does anyone feel really bad when they do well? like when my mates got BCDU for example and I got AAAB I don't know what to say to them... :(

[Toughened]

does anyone feel really bad when they do well? like when my mates got BCDU for example and I got AAAB I don't know what to say to them... :(

LOL kinda awkward like.

You're so happy you got these really good results and you have to stand there and act like what your mate got was really good as well and comfort them. Lmaoo

[Immenseman]

yeah but they tell you do you say well done or what? LOL :(

only one person got straight As at my 6th form, although it's one of the worst haaaa

only 3 or 4 got AAAB and I know me and my friend who got this are re-taking the B grade. also, my friends think it's really "snobby" (can't think of the appropriate word) that I'm re-taking on a B.

[dirrty]

does anyone feel really bad when they do well? like when my mates got BCDU for example and I got AAAB I don't know what to say to them... :(
yeah the majority of my friends got atleast a D or below and some completely revised propa hard and didn't do well. and then i'm like i got ABBB and literally hardly revised and just lazed around during the exams period. sometimes i wanna be all happy about my results but can't because it seems like i'm rubbing it in lmao.

[Immenseman]

yeah i know what you mean, i told my dad and he was like you can't feel bad about doing well because you worked really hard blah blah blah. my mates are all really happy for me and what not, just when everyone is talking about them i feel bad :P

[dirrty]

yeah lmao. when ppl told me their results, i just listen for the highest grade and comment on that positively and ask if their retaking the bad ones lol. can't really say anything else rly lol.

[Immenseman]

yeah but say they get CDDD i'm like coooooool cuz that might be what they were expecting and if i say "are you retaking those Ds" they might get really offended, lol.

how did ya sociology go anyways? our sociology gang is still strong, you keeping it next yr? i know toughened done well not sure about our fellow member heart break kid
