FabSwingers.com forum: How'd you do in your A levels?

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

It was results day yesterday for all the young uns which always makes me think of my own (crappy) results!

( I did so badly I lost my place at the top notch Uni and had to settle for a rubbish one.)

How did you get on?

I didn't do A levels. I went straight into a full time job when I left school at 16 yr old.

One of my life regrets.

A Levels are the equivalent to Scottish highers.

I didn't do any. I was knee deep in motherhood at that point in life

I did terrible, I never reached A levels I got E'F & U in my GCSE's I wasn't in the best place to study back then.

I went to collage many years later and redid them and gained my degree in my 30's with highest marks and even awarded for the marks.

I may sound big headed but going from those shite results to some amazing ones I was hugely proud of myself, I do feel for those like me who's home environment isn't great and studying was near on impossible.

I Woke up, saw I didn’t get into Durham but got into Loughborough and then honestly didn’t give a fuck about my results. I was just glad I wasn’t doing clearing.

Honestly, once you’re at uni, A Levels are so irrelevant. They’re just good to bring up in conversation when reliving trauma

Totally agree home environment messed my school education. Being able to move away to study albeit in a relatively poor uni, allowed me to flourish.

How did you get on?

I'd had my son just before my GCSE results came out, so did my A levels with a tiny baby in tow. 5 of 'em. It's his birthday today, actually (21).

I had an offer at Cambridge to do veterinary medicine. I didn't get the grades I needed so I went to a different university in Manchester to study microbiology. On the day I received my A level results, I couldn't go to the college to collect at the normal time, because my son's father refused to move a family court hearing about his access. So, I went to court first, then college later and missed all of my friends. I received my results alone, with a teacher.

There was a party that night at Mr KC's parent's house. Everyone else was happy and celebrating and I was just fed up and drained. I took myself out of bed at about 01:00 and drove myself home instead.

We didn't have A levels in South Africa. For the equivalent, the Matric Exams, I got an A aggregate. That got me straight into the engineering course I wanted to do at university, and a first year bursary from the university.

Academically, I've never done better.

Tonypandy.

Fucked mine right up, didn't get grades I needed for any of my options. Ended up doing a different course via clearing which was much more assessment based with less emphasis on end of year exams.

Far better suited to my learning style.

Still wish I'd worked harder and got to do Law though.

But over the years I've gained loads more qualifications via work related courses, and am hoping to start my Masters this year, aged 50.

Oh it's a complicated faff! I had to do 150 hours (50 each) of creativity, activity and service on top of my subjects. And theory of knowledge.

I've looked up the equivalent and it's A*A*A*A at A Levels. Fuck knows how I did it with a rather turbulent family home but I really wanted to prove people wrong. I've not thought about it for a couple of years now, the last time was at an IB reunion.

Not as well as I should have, but ok - BBD (History, Economics and Biology. I remember my history teacher telling me I was a "fucking idiot" for taking the latter). Missed my grades. Went to my insurance offer, hated it and left after 6 weeks.

Enforced year out, and reapplied the following year and up at a uni I loved.

I didn't do A levels. At the time, I'd had enough of education. But in my late 30's I did an Access to Higher Ed course, and 10 years ago I started a part-time degree with the Open Uni. Had to fit it around work, family and health issues, so its taken longer than I expected. But I am now about to begin my final year of a BA (Hons) in Classical Studies and English Language

How did you get on?

I didn’t do any until later in life when I decided to put my finger out and go and get my degree. My place was conditional on getting a pass, so that’s what I went and did, with a spectacular nod to being just an average kind of chap, but It got me into uni, and I left after completing two degrees

I do feel bad for the kids today with so much pressure being put on getting a high education

Referring to my post above I didn't do very well at school in fact I probably have adhd but it wasn't picked up back then.

All I was interested in was computers. I was programming and writing code from I was 8 years old so left school and worked in the local computer repair shop.

Taught myself windows NT by building a network in my bedroom and applied to a global IT company and I'm now a system architect.

No qualifications I just had an interview and that was it. These days the company is asking for a degree or Microsoft certification to even get an interview!

I dropped out halfway through my first year and went into work. I wish I hadn't and stuck with it, but that was the best for me then.

Went back into studying last year with work and just passed my level 4 btec diploma whuch involved theory work and osces and qualified in a new profession so now working in a new field alongside my current role. Now deciding if I want to go on and do the rest of the degree to become fully qualified to do all the rest of the aspects my scope of practice doesn't cover.

I've tried to reply to as many people as I could. It's surprising how much detail we remember about the day and the results when for some of us it's been decades! Clearly makes an impact whether positive or negative.

Lots of people who did well:

for you!

Lots who didn't but went on to thrive in life:

for you!

Surprising number of people who've gone on to study later in life (which imo is pretty tough):

for you!

I wish all those who got their A levels yesterday could read this. If you know what I mean!

Didn't quite get the results I was expecting but still managed to get onto my uni course. Although with hindsight I may have been better off not going to uni. It meant I moved out and got used to living independently as an adult a lot sooner but I've not really used my degree since and only really went because it was what was expected in my school and everyone else I knew was applying. I'd probably have been better off just starting work and spending the time perhaps figuring out what career I might actually have wanted whilst being able to live on entry level wages before getting tied into mortgages etc as an adult.

I went to Uni in another country in the late 80s so my comment isn't really relevant. Some see former polytechnics as "rubbish" here but they actually often have better facilities/teaching/support than traditional ones.

A levels were never even mentioned when I went to school, those of us in secondary education did CSE if we stayed on to the fifth year, the real dumbos left a year earlier and most went to building sites as skivvies to start with and are now multi million pound property developers. O levels and presumably A levels were exclusive territory of grammar school kids. I expect its politically incorrect to call it secondary education these days.

So a weird thing then happened

I had been thinking about going back to the states to university… I had done my SAT’s just for fun the year before so when I went into my local council offices to talk about the clearing process and in the conversations casually mentioned it and someone in the office asked if I had thought potential going back as some specific overseas student programs and absolutely encouraged people to apply

So started searching and having chats with different universities… by the end of the day had offers from 3 British universities and 3 US ones

Got 4 decent A levels but decided to join the army rather than go to university much to my parent's disappointment.

It worked out pretty good as I had a good career and it set me and my wife up for the life we live today.

I failed miserably. Didn't get into any of my chosen uni's. My old man demanded I get a job. Was in the trades ever since

How'd I do in my A levels?

I've had no complaints!

My O levels are pretty good too

"Flunked them badly, but worked my arse off and got a PhD in a Russell group uni. So it all worked out in the end.

It really did! How did you find doing a PhD? I might just private message you depending on response.

The best worst thing ever. It's amazing and really good for brains like mine. It's tough because it can be overwhelming. "

My niece is about to start her PhD - I’m so proud of her x
