Well, if you're really interested, 2 As, 3 Bs, 3 Cs and 2 Ds, but I took them a long time ago.
Congratulations, Oddball, its-so-rock-n-roll, and everyone else who picked up their results today

If it's anything like when I did GCSE Integrated Science, there's one paper for Applications and another for Principles, so two grades for science.
Combined science meant I had to do some biology

Congrats to all!

I remember being a bit disappointed with my GCSE results - and there was no forum then to comfort me.

But I have started healing, these past nine years...
Oddball
Aug 24 2006, 11:34 AM
I'm a bit disapointed with mine. I know I could've done better, and I gave everything I could in the exam, but....ah well. They're fine results!

Ah right, dunno about OCR. I did Edexcel, who did a dreadful course. I was annoyed about my coursework too....

Aug 24 2006, 12:39 PM
I was confident that i had done really well in my coursework and more worried about the written exam, but my exams were good and coursework not so good

Well Done everyone who has got their results
