    I'm gonna sound really arrogant here, but what the hey.

    Maths Core 1: 99/100 A
    Maths Core 2: 100/100 A
    Business Studies Unit 1: 90/90 A
    Government & Politics Unit 1: 70/100 B (I was predicted an A :S)
    Economics Unit 1: 57/90 C (Predicted A)

    That's the first C I've ever got, and I'm not happy. Luckily I can retake them, but I might even get them remarked because I felt as though they went well. Hopefully I can get some improvement.

    I know it's not exactly exams time in the US, but still. Anyone got advice for dealing with disappointing results. And Max, what did you get?

    Actually, over here in the states a lot of people are having their second exam (a lot of classes follow a three exam per semester schedule) or Midterm this first and second week of March. After that, Spring Break starts for us.

    I have four tests in six days and I already took three of them.

    One more to go before I can slack off for a week.

    You'll have 13 classes in the summer, so your summer is divided into two different mini-semesters then? Because over here there is usually a 6-8 class limit one cannot pass.

    I do 5 different subjects, but we don't get examined from January til May/June, so we have at least 2 exams for each subject in May/June. So I would have 10, but there's an extra Maths one, and then the two retakes, so I have 13 [​IMG]

    Well, I would wish you good luck but you don't seem to need it.

    At my school
    92-100 A
    84-91 B
    74-83 C
    65-73 D
    64- F

    So, I wouldn't be happy with those test results at my school!
