Today is Thursday 18th August 2016 and if you are an A Level Student you will know that today is A Level Results day!

When I woke up this morning (not that I'd ever really fallen asleep because I was worrying so much), I went on the UCAS website and waiting until 8am when Track would be updated and tell me whether or not I'd gotten into uni. I was so happy when I discovered that I'd been accepted to my first choice university and had been given an unconditional offer because I'd met the exam requirements! I'm going to be studying History at a university that seems perfect for me!

However, I still had to go to college and get my results. I went with my friend Zoe and got there around 10am. Zoe had amazing results (I wouldn't have expected anything less from her!) and my results were okay - at least I'd passed and gotten into uni even if they weren't what I'd wanted! I got a B in English Literature and Language overall, and C's in History and Media Studies overall. I'm slightly disappointed because of how hard I worked this year but I know that my AS grades are what dragged me down. For some reason I'd found AS level's so much harder than A2 and this reflected in my grades. This year I managed to get an A in my History coursework but because of exam results last year I ended up with a C overall.

Overall I'm happy with my A2 results, just not so happy with my overall A Level grades. On the bright side I managed to pass my A levels and get into a university I've wanted to go to and will be doing a course I will hopefully love! Well done to everyone, no matter what grades you got and good luck for your futures!
