Well somehow I got 136 for grade 8 violin! Distinction! I don't have the break-down but I think that means I passed the sight-reading blink.gif Hehe I'm so happy biggrin.gif

Thanks everyone smile.gif It was a huuuuge suprise, I told them to double check my mark because I thought they'd read off someone else's! I'm going to celebrate by blowing all my monye on a new bow this weekend.

Doesn't it feel just amazing when you get such a high mark when you work so hard in the month coming up to the exam. It's that feeling that makes it all worth it...and the mark that goes on you CV as well!

I got my breakdown today...
Piece A (Vivaldi, Spring): 29/30
Piece B (Weiniawski, Dudziarz): 28/30
Piece C (J Scott Skinner, The President): 27/30 (Mucked this one up, usually it's my best piece)
Scales: 19/21 (just screwed up A flat minor in a big way, ended up in a different key I think)
Sight-reading: 17/21 (I passed it!!!!!! First EVER time!!!!!!)
Aural: 16/18
The sight-reading mark might not seem amazing but my best one before that was 12/21.
Apparently it's the best grade 8 mark my school have ever had so that's nice!
I'm all happy smile.gif
Rainbow
