Yes, best of luck. Remember, if you do well, then next year you can do the AS levels, and then the A2s, and then the year after that you can do the first year undergrad exams ... and then the next year another lot, and then the fun of the finals and the dissertation and if you do well in all that then you can go on to Master's .... and THEN ...

.... um yeah.

I'm supposed to be encouraging you ....

In seriousness the very best good wishes for any of you doing GCSE's. And you know what the best bit is about getting them finished? You no longer have any teachers nagging about revision and setting fifteen essays a week ...

Good luck to you all

Yes, extensive quotation from "The Beverly Hillbillies" doesn't usually cut much ice with the Scottish Education Department.

Yeah it was okay. Well, I was prepared and I felt good about it. Funny though, the long course paper had nothing on abortion or contraception, and only an opinion question (no knowledge required) on euthanasia... these were the mainstays of the course!
German listening was okay... actually, not so good, but okay.
