Hi everybody,

I wonder if anyone of you has yet received the results of the November exams. Or for that matter the diploma for the instrument exams?

Last time I sat an autumn paper the result was on my desk when I came back from my Christmas holidays.

Hopefully soon as I am reluctant to get to grips with Grade 8 before I hear a result and I had intended doing Grade 8 in May so time is marching on for that plan!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Finally! Yesterday, my certificate arrived with the results. I got 98 out of 100. Very glad. But I wonder. Got anyone ever 100 points in any certificate?

Well done!

Yes, quite a few people have got full marks for theory exams. If you dig around a bit you can probably find a thread on the general music forum about the highest marks people have had - I think there were several posts there which mentioned full marks for theory.

What's really fun is that my flute teacher told me she once saw a marksheet which looked like someone had got more than full marks. The marksheet said "100/99" - the candidate had got full marks just after they switched from marking out of 99 to marking out of 100 and they were using up old mark forms which has the "/99" pre-printed.
