A friend's daughter has had hers today.
We are reading between lines and dont think she got the exact results she was hoping for. But is still going to her 3rd choice university. Her 1st and 2nd choices only had a very small amount of places. She had already been told she didnt get into them.
I think she has mixed emotions.
Congratulations to your granddaughter.
My GS got his results today, I think he was disappointed.
He wasn’t planning on university, preferring the idea of a job or apprenticeship.
Must say, I think back to his dad’s (our DS) results nearly 30 years ago. Far worse than GS’s.
But if he ends up doing as well as his dad, he’ll be ok.
Someone posted this morning, “Who in 10 years time gets asked their A level results? “ which is probably true.
Not to detract from how important today seems though, for so many 18 year olds.
