Wow :O Very good on him. 21 A's, a B and a C.

wow thats amazing
That's insane, I never knew it was possible. :P The minimum subjects you must take for 'A' levels here is 6.
didn't he do it in a year or something as well? :O i read somewhere that he started revising just 3 days before each exam :eusa_wall.
The guy really annoys me. Not because of what he achieved, his personality just gets me. :S
Uhhh.. no idea what an A Level is, but sounds easy.
wat a nerd

Just because he's pakistani? You racist!Quote:

Aren't A levels the equivalent to a degree in America? Anyway, yeah to pass 23 in a year is amazing.
I think they are similar to GCE's (General certificate of education), could be wrong though.Quote:

What the hell he has that many A levels and he's doing computer science which all the wannabe tech boys do and get into fail jobs after :S he should really make a big thing of his college life and get money from talk shows and stuff then build his own career out of that money. He did business studies, he should know to think like commercially :P
Yeah, same.Quote:

wow some people need a life.
you'll find that he probably will have a better life than you can even imagine?Quote:

yes because qualifications and careers are everything aren't they? :rolleyes:Quote:

how is that happiness??
alex you right, 23 a lvls isn't going to buy him happiness in life, it just makes him clever 2bh.
at his age qualifications are vitalQuote:

and you wont get a secure job without decent qualifications if you dont put time, effort and hard work into them will you?
it is almost pretty pointless, fair enough do a couple more to make you stand out from the rest and obviously make sure you do the ones which comprehend with the career path you wish to go down, but why go that far?
qualifications aren't vital.
you can drop out after GCSE's, get a job and then work your way up. in fact you don't even need to work your way up to enjoy your life. if you think your career is everything in your life then you need help.
no one doing a levels dedicates themselves to the point of this - where they clearly have no social life whatsoever - and chances are that if you're socially ******ed then you're not going to be happy unless you have psychological problems.
qualifications aren't vital?? pmsl thats the most stupid thing ive ever heard :SQuote:
