View Full Version : I can now live ....
Sniper Fri, 24th Aug '01, 12:50am I just want to say that at damn last i've finished all of my GCSE exams (O' level) and i can be set free! And to top it off i did good!
I got 6Bs, 2Cs, 1D & 1 E
So what did you guys get for your exams?
The Deviant Mage Fri, 24th Aug '01, 4:25am What's a GCSE?
Alex Fri, 24th Aug '01, 7:43am Hmmm I took 13 AP tests and got 4 5's, 6 4's, 2 3's and a 2.... I RULE!!
Wildfire Fri, 24th Aug '01, 9:30am Only did one GCSE this year, Everthing else next year, but I got an A for French which is nice :).
Headbanger Fri, 24th Aug '01, 9:54am Congratulations Sniper! Be free. Explore the earth and go multiply yourself (ah forget about that bye the way) ;)
We have another mark-sytem at school... From 1 til 10, 10 is highest, one is lowest you can get, 5,5 just enough... For the Exams you could only get
I had for my exams an 9,3 for English, 9,0 for Economy, 8,2 for Geography, 7,9 for Math, 7,6 for Dutch and a 6,1 for Chemistry.
The Exams counted for 50% and the other marks you got in the whole year for the other 50 percent. With that (and then you could only get full marks) I had 8,8,8,7,7,6. (Didn't learn too much that year)

Shura Fri, 24th Aug '01, 1:54pm Hmmm for my GCSE O levels, I got 6As and 2 Bs.
Damn, so close to getting a near perfect score!
But that was almost 3 years ago. Ah well.
Arkados Blackmire Fri, 24th Aug '01, 4:42pm Was from the same school as Shura, got 4As, 2Bs and a C... GCSE 'O's
The Deviant Mage Fri, 24th Aug '01, 7:12pm Seriously, what's the GCSE?
I took ACT(33 of 36) and SAT(1520 of 1600), AP too(passed 'em all, not recounting each), but no GCSE...
Is this the British, Irish, Canadian or Australian system?
Silverblade Fri, 24th Aug '01, 7:23pm It is the UK system, I don't get it either. I think the dutch system (which Headbanger just descriped) is much easier.
The US system is also quiet difficult to understand for somebody not from the USA.

Big B Fri, 24th Aug '01, 8:46pm I'm from the US, here's college grading scale:
90-100 A
80-89 B
70-79 C
60-69 D
59 and below is failing
That AP stuff Alex mentioned is advanced placement I believe and are classes that you can take in highschool for college credit.
Scores rang from 1-6 I think, 6 being best. Hmm maybe it's 1-5, 5 being best, I can't remember.

Fljotsdale Sat, 25th Aug '01, 1:40am GCSE
A*, A, are very good
B is pretty good
C is acceptable
D is just about worth the effort
E and lower is not worth the effort.
Alex Sat, 25th Aug '01, 2:23am AP tests are 1-5... and 13 of em can almost get you junior standing at some colleges. :)
Sniper Sat, 25th Aug '01, 3:07am And if you are accustomed to O levels to GCSEs basically, to pass an O level, you have to get a grade C or higher in GCSEs.
Anything below that is a fail in terms of O levels.
Avooch Dar Sat, 25th Aug '01, 11:24am I just got mine too!!!!!!!
4 A's 6 B's 1 c and an E!!!!
I was sooooo happy i almost cried!
Sniper Sat, 25th Aug '01, 9:04pm Congratulations!
You brainy bastard! :D :D :D
Damn i'd cry too man if i got that!
The Deviant Mage Sat, 25th Aug '01, 9:57pm Ok, I understand. I was thinking of it as a test, not a grade system.
90-100 A
80-89 B
70-79 C
60-69 D
59 and below is failing
This system also has the +/- modifiers to make it more specific. Hence 100% correct = an A+(seems to be A* is the same...are there B*s too? B+s are an 89%, 90 = A-, etc. This holds true for entire spectrum.)
Nobleman Sat, 25th Aug '01, 10:03pm Congratulations all of Your HardCore Brainiacs.
The Danish system is a little story in itself Watch the numbers and be stunned.
13: Highest possible given extremely rare 1/10000
11: An outstanding performance
10: A great performance
9: a good performance
8: average
7: below average
6: just passed
5: just flunked
03: extremly poor performance
00: Ohmygod that was ugly
Wherever did 2, 4 and 12 go? Someone in denmark must hate even numbers. It takes an average of 6 to pass most preUniversity schools in Denmark
Big B Sat, 25th Aug '01, 10:40pm Yeah the +/- system is sometimes used. Basically you have ten points, the top 3 are +, the middle 4 are normal, and the bottom 3 are -. Like this:
A+ is 97-100
A is 93-96.9
A- is 90-92.9
And you love teachers that round up!
Avooch Dar Sat, 25th Aug '01, 11:22pm thanx Sniper but your grades were also very good. My friend called Carly got .......wait for it............4 a's and 8 a*'s. plus she got two b's in as levels and she is still year 11!!!!!

Sir Dargorn Mon, 27th Aug '01, 8:44pm She is rather good looking but not a stunner i fear. But for a serial masturbator like you there is no chance! :D ;)
