Well, I got my results this morning.
For those who want to know, I got:
Physics - A
Maths - B
Chemistry - B
ICT - B
Which means I have got into Birmingham University to study Computer Systems Engineering. :)
Anyone else take A-Levels this year?
Comfortingly, the front of the Metro (free London paper), says "A-Levels are meaningless". Which is nice. ;)

Thanks Eriken, that was pretty damn quick!
A-Levels are graded on a scale of A to E, where A is the best and E the worst. There is also U, which stands for unclassified i.e. failed.

Congrats! Make sure to enjoy university (and the time until then!). It's a whole new world, but with cheaper booze.

Computing - A
Electronics - A
Mathematics - C
Physics Syl.B - C
Going to do... M.Comp 4 year degree :D
If I got a B in Maths I would have been going to York, but now Sheffield will be my beer consumption junction for the next 4 years :D
And I damn anyone who says that A-Levels are "Easy", "Meaningless", etcetc..

A-Levels are easy and meaningless :twisted:
Well done Zanthos!

Well done Zanthos, but A-levels really are meaningless over here, unless you want to go into medicine :P

Well done, Zanthos, and sorry about the Maths!
Further analysis of my results shows I was just 6 marks (out of 600 i.e. 1%) below an A grade in Mathematics, which is especially annoying as Birmingham University give a grant of AĴ£1000 to engineering students with at least grades AAB. :(
I don't know how people can say that the A-Levels are being made easier; my Maths and Chemistry exams were damn hard, although Physics was rediculously easy IMHO.
