I got mine many years ago, but well done to everyone who got theirs today/gets them soon.
Always assuming that you got what you hoped for.

Gz dude.

I'll be honest, I wasn't happy would mine. Could've got an A* in Maths and History. Got an A and a B instead.

Luckily, my A levels went alot better. 2 A*s and an A ^^. Probably announced those here already but whatever, I'm still proud of them :p

Oh I remember GCSEs... if you thought they were hard, Have fun with your A Levels! Those bastards were probably harder combined than doing my degree is.
I found my A Levels ALOT easier. Probably a combination of the lack of coursework, far better teachers, and a complete lack of extended writing.

Did you take maths/mechanics, chemistry, physics or geography?

Evil, evil subjects.

2A's 6B's 1C's but I kinda pissed because I got 2D's which lowered 2 of my A/A*s down and pretty much all of my subject were almost the next grade. So they're fine but not perfect.

3 A*'s and 7 A'S.
wow, these results are amazing! I could have only dreamed to get this, although I am happy with the results I got, I do feel that if I had tried, I could have got better. Still, I got more than what I needed, no time to complain :)

At least you don't live in Ireland, people here have to contend with the Leaving Cert.
Bleh. I hated that..

I just got my results last week.

To be fair, even though I only started working around Easter this year I still got 410, I was quite surprised.

Maths (including M1), Further Maths (including M2), Physics, as well as Chemistry AS (And Computing AS.... but we don't talk about that...)

In total, 200 words outside of school for coursework, and the longest piece of writing were the physics practicals (which, naturally, I did worse on than anything else (not including co-). They lost me the 3rd A* by 2 marks :( )

I don't know, I just find those subjects easy compared with English, Languages, and any timed piece of History.

I got mine years back, nothing great but I am quite proud of them considering my school had a pass rate of 30%. Yes you heard that right 30%.

1A, 3B's, 5C's, and 1 D. People say school is easy, I beg to differ considering my school was shit, had shit teachers, and a load of kids that were in gangs and dealing drugs, which most of are guranteed to be involved in crime or in prison within two years of leaving. Which is exactly what happened.

Glad to say Im in my last year of University and extremely glad to be rid of the place.

Did mine a few years ago now (technically standard grades because I'm Scottish like that) I don't remember or care what I got particularly but my general memory of school was that I did really badly, I have all of 3 highers (sort of equivalent to A-levels)

Still I'm a uni student now, yay.

I got 10 As and 1 B last year. So I was pretty happy with that.

For English Literature They gave us about 12 poems to analyse and the 2 that I actually learnt were the 2 that came up in the exam.

Also I just got my AS level results and I feel like I cheated somewhat because I did bugger all work for the entire year and got 4As.

I guess I'll give you a rundown:

French - B (I was expecting an A*, so I'm entering that for a remark)
German - A (Can't complain, but I was one mark off an A*)
ICT - B (...meh)
English Language - A
English Literature - A
History - A*
Maths - A*
Geography - A*
Biology - A* (no idea how that happened)
Chemistry - A*
Physics - A*

Overall, I was expecting better (the target I set myself was 7 A*'s and 4 A's) but I got into sixth form and I really can't complain.
