A-Level Day. So called, because everyone gets an "A"... in every subject. Next stop: Uni to do Basket Weaving & Meeja Studies. Double-First virtually in the bag for all. -

From that linky:
Some universities have said that exam grades are no longer sufficient for them to use to select undergraduates.
Sounds both right & worrying.
Exam officials are stressing the hard work and determination that students have put in to earn their results this year.

It's a shame because folk who work hard get put down by comments like the above.
My brother has worked his arse off trying to pass Maths, Further Maths, Physics & Chemistry basically on his own as the scholl he went to was so crap. We'll find out today whether Cambridge is going to happen or not."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

Brother gets results today (Maths, Further Maths, Physics & Chemistry). If he doesn't get into Cambridge then he's going to have to go to Durham. Poor little sod."See, you think I give a tulip.
