hey nat, 121 is a mark OVER a merit - don't put it down!! you got some impressive marks there, and 13 is pretty good for the evil grade 8 aural for someone who claims to be terrible at aural! so major pat on the back and VERY well done!

A merit for grade 8 is fantastic, and I believe there is very little difference between a merit and distinction. Brilliant result. Take a break from AB exams now.

Jul 19 2005, 07:24 PM
Well done you did it (even passed grade 8 aural, now you can't claim to be bad at it!). You most definitely deserve a pat on the back

Good marks all round Nat! I see you passed your aural too. No more 'I can't do aural'.... What do you mean 'only just a merit?' - it IS a pass with merit.

Does this mean you will be posting an apology for all of those "I'm going to fail" posts we had to plough through beforehand?

That's a really amazing achievement - well done Nat. Out of interest, for how long before starting Sax did you play clarinet, and how much do you think that helped?

I've played clarinet badly for 4 years, but it definitely helped! And I started sax in September.

Just 3 terms then, and a little clarinet! It's inspirational.

Yes, Congratulations Nat! You rock! I think even if I'd ploughed through the violin for ten YEARS, I'd still only get a pass.
