I finish my last GCSE exam on Monday and I've been thinking about what I'm going to get!
These are my personal predictions:
English Lang - C
English Lit - B
Statistics - B
Geography - A*
French - A
Food Tech - A
Business - B
And I already have these:
English Language iGCSE - C
Media - A
Maths - A (literally skimmed it!)
So:
Year 9:
GCSE French - B
Year 10:
GCSE Maths - A
Year 11:
Religious Education - A*
Chemistry - A*
Biology - A*
Physics - A
English Language - A
English Literature - A
Statistics - A
Geography - B
ICT - B
(Should have took GCSE History, but wasted two years doing AS-French and not taking the exam)
11 A*-C's, decent results at the time, now they're completely meaningless.
A-Levels for those interested:
Year 12:
Maths - A
Year 13:
Physics - A
Chemistry - B
Further Maths - B
Decent results again, also now pointless :P
well done i bet your parents were very proud of you!
My dad couldn't care less, my mum said she was proud, but I don't think she understood how things even worked :P Her highest GCSE grade was an E, and I think that was in typewriting...Quote:

I also do BTEC Science which i got merit in but I don't really care about it and I got A* in my EPQ Level 2 thing
13 A*-C at GCSE, didn't revise at all, low attendance at school - feel like an utter **** now, mainly after going to a school in Namibia.
AS Levels showed my remorse for it, 4As, 1B, 1C. I obviously don't know my A Level grades yet - hoping to get 3A and 2B though.
ik my mums like that to, on my first gcse science exam I got a D then I told my mum she was like OMG WELL DONE but I eventually ended up being put in btec science (without a chance to retake!)Quote:

4A*'s and 6A's basically. lmao like everyone i know litearlly has like 13+ gcses and i'm here with 10 and no idea how most of them have so many ;lll
------------------
For AS results i'm predicted:
Maths A
Further Maths A
Chemistry A
Physics A
Music A/B
january exams in AS's were -
c1 - 98/100
s1 - 96/100
chem - 81/90
so should be ok for maths/chemistry, hopefully did ok in everything else in my may/june exams though I think I probably failed music lmao
My mum would have screwed if I got a D lolQuote:

i got 10 As and 1 A*
Umm in Year 9 I got these GCSEs:
German - C
Geography - B
IT - A*
and I can't remember the rest oops *these are what I have so far*
For my Year 10 GCSE results I'm predicting..:
Science - B
PE - A*
Maths - C (possibly D ohmy)
English - A*
Law - B
Product Design - A*
My year 11 predictions aree:
If I resit maths - B
Biology - A*
Chemistry - C
Physics - C
Citizenship - A
Astronomy - A
I THINK that's it. idek
I got:
Additional Maths - A
IGCSE History - A*
IGCSE Chemistry - A*
IGCSE Physics - A*
Maths - A*
Geography - A*
Biology - A
French - A
IT (double award) - AA
English Lang/Lit - AB (DAMN ENGLISH LIT)
so 5A* 6A 1B
Also got a BTEC in public services and a BTEC in aviation studies which equates to 6 GCSEs altogether
so I suppose altogether I did 14 GCSEs, 3 IGCSE and one free-standing maths qualification :o
shame they're almost meaningless but whatever lol (with the exception of add maths which will earn me like 20 ucas points I think :O :O :O)
(A)

Although none of it even matters now :rolleyes:
Ah okay :DQuote:

I got 1 B and the rest were Cs. No idea how I managed to get a B in Health though.
I was predicted an E in French, English Lit and Science so when I ended up getting a C in all three I was like :dance:.
Not that any of it matters now anyway :P.
2As 5Bs 3Cs and a D :Innocent:
I don't understand how i ended up with hardly any GCSEs compared to most people.
4A's, 3B's and 1C. (two of those are btecs).
I got (this was a few years ago now) from what I remember...
English A
Maths D
Science C
History B
Geography C or D
ICT B
Travel and Tourism A
I think.
You and I (oh so modest now) are proof relatively poor GCSEs don't mean much in the long run :LQuote:

If not, I wouldn't be too surprised that people have a lot more GCSEs these days, although 8 is still pretty low. I thought 11 was a lot, and nobdy at my school had more GCSEs than me... And now kids are getting 13, 14, 15 :P
yeah one of the btecs was supposed to be worth 4 gcses. i only class it as one. It's ridiculous how people get so many gcses, unless they are just starting gcses even earlier now? I don't know. Oh well.Quote:

BTEC Performing Arts - Distinction* (2x A*'s)
BTEC Art & Design - Distinction* (2x A*'s)
BTEC Media Studies - Distinction* (2x A*'s)
Science - B
Modular Maths - B
English Lit - C
Year 11 -
English Language - A
Science - A
Linear Maths - A (So in maths overall I got an A as the modular exams and the linear are on the same specification)
Retakes/What I expect to get in the exams just done -
English Lit retake - B
English Lit (second exam) - B
English Language retake - A (I got two B's in the exam but I ended up on an A overall and I don't think I've done any better)
Statistics - A
Music - B
French - D/C
Drama - A
So I think around 15 GCSEs :L
Mine were very mixed, I got AAABCCCCD - the A's being in Maths, Additional Science and English Language :P.
2 As
4 Bs
2 Cs
1 D
no im sure i had 10 gcses, it was prob 3 Cs
BTEC Business (eurgh) 4x A*
English language B
English lit C
Physics B
Chemistry C
Biology C
Anything else was lower than a C. One was a U because of my teachers not submitting the coursework and making me do the wrong work altogether (still pisses me off despite being 2 years ago). Probably would have done better also if I didn't miss around 2 months of school so close to exams & if I actually revised.
Quite a lot of schools start GCSEs in year 9 now, my school was one of the first in the area to do it and its benefited a lot of people due to the fact that in the year extra you get you can do resits to get better grades and stuff.Quote:

First of all, good luck with your exams!
Remember to just take it as another piece of work, you already have the knowledge I expect just put it to good use :)
Unlike the advise I have given you above, I messed around at school a lot and didn't listen to anyone.
My Grades were as follows;
English Literature : B
English Language : C
Physical Education : C
Religious Education : C
I/T : C
History : C
Maths : D
Science: D, D (took double science)
Geogrpahy: D
If only I had listened more at school the first 5 years of my working life, would have been so much easier!
Good Luck :D
I got 5 C's at school. GCSEs literally mean nothing if you get decent qualifications at college so all is good :)
What a waste of time lolQuote:

Got 15 a*-a and then an a* and 3 as at a level then a 1st in my degree :)
Sent from my iPhone so sorry for any obvious SPAG stuff (Samanfa)
12 GCSE's:
1 x A*
10 x A
1 x B
2 AS Level:
1 x A
1 x C
3 Full A Levels (A2):
3 x B
English Language - B
English Literature - B
French - C
Electronic Products - A
Maths - A
Science Core - B
Science Additional - A
Geography - A
OCR National Level 2 ICT - DDD (3 A equivalent)
That's all I did, so don't complain if you only did 10-11 :P
Even though I used to live in England and talked to my friends all through GCSE and A Level it's still so weird seeing you guys have so many... We only have 6 subjects in year 11, the same 6 in year 12 and you drop one for year 13 so have 5. Not to mention grading is different E M A NA no stars or anything just Excellence, Merit, Achieved or Non Achieved. There's no overall grade either you get a grade per internal/external. Did get a few top of classes though..
maths a
english b
science b
ad science b
geog c
graphics a/b
they're just predicted
I ended up with:
3 Bs - Sociology, English Lang, Additional Science.
5 Cs - Spanish, English Lit, R.E full course, Maths, Core Science.
1 D - History.
F - Citizenship full course because I only handed in 1 coursework.
English - A
Maths - B
Science - B
History - B
German - A (don't know how they expect me to get that)
ICT - A
RE - B (I think)
Tbh, I'm an under achiever, I could probably get A's in most but I've been lazy in the past so I l missed some of the basics.
