    [​IMG] As some of you may know, people in Britain got their GSCE exam results thursday last week, and since I've just got back from a music festival, I thought I'd comment on them.

    Overall, it seems people in Britain didn't do as well as last year (-0.3% or so), but I was pretty damn chuffed with mine. So how did you do (if you're british), and what do you think of them? If you're not british, you can comment too. I'll let you ;)

    These following results are the reason why I am now Amazing:

    German: A
    Science Single: B
    Science Double: B
    Graphical Design: B
    English Language: B
    English Literature: B
    French: B
    Mathematics: C
    Business Studies: D

    It may not seem much to you, but I was amazingly proud of these! :)

    *pats Gopher on the back*

    Well, I would be more proud of you, would that I knew a little more about what GSCE exams were. Making me guess, are you? All right:

    Girl Sized Clothing Exam?
    Great Sassy Chipmunk Exam?
    Gnomish Sadistic Calisthenics Exam?
    Gargantuan Sneeze Clean-up Exam?
    Greenlandic Superman's Chastity Exam?
    Gold Standard Catapult Exam?
    Gremlin Sipping Cognac Exam?
    German Sausage Countermeasure Exam?

    Throw me a frikkin' bone here. :confused:

    GSCE's are the exams you get before entering college. In effect, they are what you receive at the end of High School iirc (16 years old). Your College (16-18yrs) will look at these and decide what courses you can take, which results in your A-Levels, which is what your future job will look at to determine if they hire you or not.

    Needless to say, they're pretty damn important.

    Nothing like a little predestination and forcing you into a life path at a young age. If you're happy, I'm happy. Congrats.

    Actually, it's spelled GCSE and stands for General Certificate of Secondary Education. How Gopher got a B in English Language is beyond me. :shake:
