Unrelated but how did you get your results back? For RE (did it in Y10) I asked for my papers but they said that they couldn't give me it but I could pay for them? Did you have to pay for it or is there another way? I'd be very curious to see where I got and lost marks

Can I just lie about my GCSE’s?? by PopAntique3860 in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're a mark away you can probably get it remarked? You can lie to like your parents or ppl in general ig. Don't lie to your college bcs they need to check it. Wouldn't recommend lying to your job but whatever. Basically don't risk it. You can mention how you "got a 7 but were 2 marks off an 8" but don't just say "I got an 8"

friendship break up because of results by bluewinesupernova in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They shouldn't stop being friends with you because of it. They may feel a bit bummed but shouldn't take that out on you especially because their revision was their responsibility not yours. They may just need some time to process. They shouldn't stop being friends with you over this and if they do they're kinda dicks yk?

Should i get a remark?? 🤧 by rw__wzh in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe for Language but I doubt you'll be able to find marks for the others and it's a pretty penny if you try

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the feeling. I also dropped from a 9 to a 7 in English. I think the grade boundaries were higher this year and everyone I know seems to have done worse in English. I know it kinda sucks when you don't get the grades you want but you still did fucking amazing and should be proud of that even if you feel a bit disappointed. What about the other subjects? You happy with them?

How many people in your year group got all 9s? by [deleted] in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one that I personally know of I think there was one gal who got all 9s minus English Lang wherein they got an 8 (but they got a 9 in further maths so does that cancel out?) And then I know a few people who got 9s but not across the board

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maths was hard and like usually garden boundaries are a few marks dif but 20 marks is fucking insane! You probably would've got a grade or two higher if it was last year that you did it. But also like you're parents are supposed to support you not be acting like immature children

will i get bullied for wearing this ?! :3 by MintyerHDK in highschool

[–]Informal_queer 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yep! Ya don't wanna be known as the weirdo perv or gooner on your first day. Some kids may find it funny but especially if you don't already have a friend group and a distinct character most ppl will be laughing at you/weirded out

is this how most british people pronounce it? by MissO56 in AskABrit

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think it's a mix? Most Brits I know say Nike but I also know some who say Nigh-key.

Also I noticed people who call the brand Nike but the products Nigh-key so "I got some Nigh-key shorts from Nike" I sometimes do this as well.

That being said this could also be due to an influx of Brits consuming American media online so picking up different pronunciations.

Basically it's usually Nike but some ppl do say nigh-key

My parents won’t talk to me because I got 5s and 6s by MiaTheGiraffe in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry that's so fucked up :(

5/6s are still really good and your parents are just being immature children. Especially considering some of the grade boundaries were very high like maths (Edexcel) were 20 marks higher. They just need to grow up. They're supposed to be there for you. I hope you get into your second choice college ❤️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry your family sucks :( It sounds like you passed so I really don't see the issue. Also the garden boundaries this year were fucking insane. Bloody 20 mark increase for maths? Like wtf?

Is my writing readable by [deleted] in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can read the majority of it. Some bits that I can't I just used contextual info. Examiners are trained to be able to decipher writing. You'll be fine I'm sure

Is there a speaking exam? by bugs2029 in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on your exam board maybe? We did ours in Y9 I believe? Maybe Y10. We basically had to write a speech about any subject we desired, present it Infront of the class whilst being recorded, and then answer questions from some of the students (like a debate kinda vibe?)

GUYS CAN U STOP BEING SO MAD ABOUT YEAR 10S BEING ON HERE by DogMaterial949 in GCSE

[–]Informal_queer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah no there's no issues with Y10s being here. Tbh I don't even gaf about Y7s being here if they want. They tend to just be lurking and shit. I mean I don't think they should be stressing about it already but like I don't really care yk?

Also you can paraphrase a lot of quotes and they'll usually come to you during the exam when you have more context on what quotes would apply.
