Did anyone else get their exam results today?
I got 4 A's and a B. I don't know when the English results come out, it's a bit later isn't it?

In England and Wales, school pupils take exams (called GCSEs) just before they leave high-school (16 years old).

After leaving high school, you can go to college (16 - 18 years old) where you take your A-Levels. This ain't compulsory, but a lot of people do it.

After that, you can go to university and do a degree.

For some reason, all these exams always take place at the start of summer (may/june) and the results come out round about now.

I opened the case to my PC today and thought, my exhaust fan sucks.

I thought you did your A-levels at High School?

Anyhoo, I'm not talking about GCSEs (and they're called Standard Grades in Scotland), I'm talking about Highers (which is more like the A-levels). I only needed AABB to get into my chosen course at Uni, so with AAAAB it should be a breeze - especially since I'll hopefully get 3 Advanced Higher A's next year.

...I just found out - it's the 21st in England!
