Well it turned out pretty well after all. My grades were AAAA;
Computing [A] - Rather fortunate with that one. Sort of neglected this hoping for the best, and it worked out :)
Maths [A] - Worked really hard for this so I'm really happy with it.
Law [A] - This was my highest points score out of all of them which came as a real surprise, but I guess I put in aquite a bit of work for this too.
Business [A] - I had a very solid grade from the previous years work, and from my January exam so I didn't have to work much at this as I did the others.
Needless to say everyone seemed to be happy especially my Law and Business teachers, but I would have liked to have seen my patronising maths teacher :p
Well done Mike and Crisp on your results, and I'm sure rel did equally well too :)
I've just come back from my leavers ball/prom thing and it wasn't too bad, and I went to a club afterwards and was getting really friendly with this girl when it all went wrong for her with unrelated major disappointment so that was the end of the night for us. Amazing day though, maybe I'll say more another time but I think it's time for bed now. I saw a lot of friends though at the club which was nice. I'm going to miss this place, a little :p

Well done man, four A levels is amazing, four A grades is totally amazing. What uni are you going to again? Ah it's times like these I wish I'd have worked a bit for my exams ;) I was 20 points from an A in Computing, I could easily have got that if I'd have, say, revised or something! I was 3 points away from a C in Philosophy, and got a decent B in Economics, which I was shocked at. So all together BBD. I'm only 1/3 slightly dissapointed anyway. Well done you, and shame about the girl :)

"when it all went wrong for her with unrelated major disappointment"

Almost seems everyone here is congratulating you on your marks simply to get it out of the way to ask about the girl you met. ;-)
Seriously, excellent work. Seems you did better than the others. Heck, you did better than I did when I was in school! :-) Congrats!

BTW, saying that c138 "did better than the others" wasn't meant to offend anyone. After re-reading it, I noticed that it could be taken that way, but it's not how I meant it. Just pointing out that his scores rock.
