Thank you Julia, Clare is doing a French/German/ European Studies degree (four years) in the third year she has to spend 6 months in France and 6 months in Germany.

Bella Donna - my greatest congratulations to your daughter. She may be doing something I would have liked to do. I hope she enjoys it, but I know it will be had work.

My Daughter got two Bs and one C (missed the B by one point!).....She will be off to Bath Uni in Sept.

Karrie - I took 6 'O' levels when I was thirty, and 5 'A' when I was fifty. Despite what the media says, they do not get any easier. Good luck to your son, and God bless for his hard work. I hope he achieves everything he wants to do.

Article in Daily Mail today about how it's not always necessary to get a degree.

My daughter did a degree at University College London, a prestigious university and got a 2.1 in human anatomy and biology. However she has a job where no degree is necessary...a Forensics officer (Scenes of Crimes) with the Met police.

And she has a £10,000 debt to pay back!!!

Good luck to all

Thats sounds interesting Heather. My son always wanted to teach but surprised us with psychology. However I think he may still teach in the future, we'll see

Thats what my son wants to do also Karrie. He is doing it through arts so will get his arts degree first..........just in case he changes his mind half way through.......lol

My son wants to study psychology (probably watched too much CSI lol).. possibly criminal psychology or even teaching...

Good luck to all those on tenderhooks

Good luck to your son Karrie.
My Grandson is waiting on tenterhooks for his,and like your son has really worked hard

In fact good luck to all who are waiting for exam results and best wishes for the future!

Hi Karrie, my friend can't sleep this week as she is waiting for her daughter's results tomorrow and is panicking about what they will do if she doesn't get her required grades. She is planning to do physiotherapy and it is so tough to get into the best uni's. She is a brilliant student but had a few problems around the exam time and is not sure how she did.
I will have my fingers crossed for all of these kids tomorrow!

Thanks.. i am sure he will, & if he doesnt then he will go to his second choice...

I didnt feel like this for my own A levels.. in fact i couldnt have cared less.. which was good, seeing as i failed miserably lol

I know how you feel Karrie.............My son got his Leaving Cert results today........He was very confident when he sat the exams but in the last week he began to get nervous and worried about whether he'd get the points required for Uni. He needn't have worried because he did great getting 445 points.....he needed 380 so he is on his way. No point in saying good luck.............whats done is done........hope he gets the results he wants

Good luck to your son, will keep my fingers crossed .....

My son gets his A level results tomorrow... he is making me nervous!!

he needs an A & 2 B's to get to the Uni of his choice.. he couldnt have worked any harder than he did, but he is doubting himself & its infectious...

Roll on tomorrow.. one way or the other
