Nat: those 5 marks don't matter if Bangor have accepted you, which it sounds like they have - and congrats for your Bs in English and Music.

Well done Helen.

Well done, Helen. Am I right in thinking you're doing AQA Psychology? In which case Unit 2 would be Stress and Individual Differences? Which subjects are you continuing with? (besides Psychology biggrin.gif ).

Hey Nat - coincidence - you got exactly the same grades as my daughter!
She wouldn't look on the UCAS site, but waited to go in to school at 10.30.

She phoned us a bit later. Different subjects but the same grades!

Yes, I am doing AQA. In january when I was miffed with my C in the first module you said that unit 1 was the hardest. Yes unit 2 is the stress and individual differences module. Although I couldn't for the life of me remember the workplace stress study so I just randomly wrote. laugh.gif

Music, psychology, french, and carrying on to complete the AS general studies module.


Midlands today were at my college! woo! Maybe I'll be on the news??? *hopes*
tamsin
Well, I got a B in a/s maths. Bit irritated with my Stats 1 grade, I thought it had gone really well but I only just scraped into the C boundary for it! Still, hopefully when I retake it, I might just manage to scrape back up into the A vicinity!

Congrats to everyone else. biggrin.gif

Boo Radley

Congrats! Fab results boo.
cheeble
my music breakdown (for my dear elmo):

A2:
94 for composition (what i want to do for a living)
99 in performance
100 in historical study

AS (from last year):
93 for performance
100 for composition
100 for historical study

so 586 overall... which i was pretty pleased with! biggrin.gif hehe
elmo
wow! I'm guessing they're all out of 100?! That's ace!

What on earth is a Historical study!? (Don't state the obvious, but wat do you have to do?!)
cheeble
lol yeah they're out of 100...

historical study: for AS you have 6 set works which you answer questions on and you get 2 aural exercises
for A2 you have some set eras (ours was the Romantic era) and a synoptic essay plus 2 aural exercises

it's weird, but that's OCR for you. hehe!!

what boards did everyone else do?

*Humbled and depressed at the same time*

From memory:
60/90 - composition sad.gif
83/90 - performing smile.gif
91/120 - listening paper

And in A2:
48/90 - performance sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif
55/90 - written paper
75/120 - Investigation, report and composition sad.gif

412/600 pretty disappointed with A2, especially as I thought nocturne in E flat went very well in performance and I put so much effort into my I, R & C.
cheeble
hey, those results are still fantastic, dont put urself down!!! smile.gif congratulations, you should be really proud!
sarah-flute
Well done everyone!

Don't mock that invest and report mark boo, coz I got the same as you! biggrin.gif

I aint mocking the mark, I just thought that the level of work that I put in deserved a higher grade but hey who am I to judge. I'm sure you worked hard too though, did you want a higher grade too Elmo?
elmo
I was satisfied with my grade, but I agree about the effort! It's a bit mean to work so hard on something and get just over half marks!
saxlover
I'm annoyed about performance mad.gif
elmo
I'm pleased with everything in music, except the point about the invest and report! Do they do it 90 for invest and 30 for comp? or 60 60?

Performance I deserved 60. I relaxed too much after that concert so didnt concentrate enough in the real thing.

written paper: god only knows!
Alibonebone!
Music A

Chemistry B

Well done everyone!
Boo Radley
Well congrats to Ali-b-b and g.tuba. Great marks! (Just a hunch, do you reckon that on average, people who do play an instrument are more academically gifted/motivated than people who don't?) Didn't know there was such a subject as music tech, sounds like fun!
saxlover
No because I'm not academically gifted but play instruments

oh .. well no because the leaving cert results came out over here yesterday and people got as, a2s, bs, b2s etc etc in those too blink.gif But Im thinking the majority of this board are from England - however I wasn't aware that the a levels were out today (im assuming it was today cause im jus sooo intelligent wink.gif )

Yes it was today. AS and A2 out today. GCSE's out next thursday.
saxlover
Ah I see. Well yes the AS and A2 results came out here today smile.gif
Symphony
as and a2s?? Iv never heard it called that - only the A Levels :-/
saxlover
AS is the 1st year of the A-level

A2 is the 2nd year

Combined it is an A-level

AS is the first year of A level. A2 is the second year. The qualification as a whole is called an A level.
Symphony
Ohhh it all makes so much more sense now - so do ye get graded on the AS, and then again on the A2s? Why not just do it in the final year? (sorry for being ignorant)
saxlover
Yes at the end of AS you get grades, these also count towards the overall qualification
