So, for English and Welsh people, the results out for A Levels. I wanted to see what everyone got, what universities they're going to, if they're sad or not. This is just a place for you to let out your anger or sadness. My brother was turned down both universities. So how did you guys do?

Earlier than it was for me. I got my results on my birthday (10 days from now, hint hint).

not sure what zed just said. Is this like your qualification tests for uni?

It's the equivalent of America's highschool, but I think more hard? It's more like undergraduate stuff, and yes it's used to qualify you into universities.
I got my AS results (first half of A level), and am not happy with them but wasn't expecting better considering my lack of revision:
Psychology: D
Politics: C
Philosophy: B

It's qualifications for life in general. I think it's slightly above America's high school because it's non-compulsory, but it's lower than university. You do it aged about 16-18. You choose three or four subjects and study them pretty thoroughly rather than doing a broader education in everything. The results can get you a job, or they can get you into uni.

I got AS results and one A level too.
English AS - A
Physics AS - A
Maths AS - A
Maths A level - A (gutted)
Apazzy this year we've managed to do significantly worse than last year's lot.
Loads of people have been declined, I don't really know how it works but maybe your brother has a chance through clearing?

Yeah, that's what we're hoping. He got an offer for UCL if he got all three A, but he got a B in maths. Which was so incredibly surprising. We're hoping on Bristol now.
Oh yeah, good luck Zed.
