OFF TOPIC: A Message to all A-Level and GCSE Result people

24/08/2010 by Kevincm

Dear Successful Exam Student.

On this results day, you’ve got a mixture of feelings – be it joy, happiness, anger or despair depending how your results have gone today.

From someone who has been all four at once (and at 16, I was pretty much written off by my old school), some words of advice:

Joy – You’ve got the result at last.
Celebrate – And seriously, I mean that. 2+ years of hard work on any subject is enough to drive anyone bonkers. And well done
Don’t be angry – At the end of the day, you did the best you could on a set of conditions on a day.
Despair – of what to do next. 

FINALLY – I PLEAD WITH YOU –

  • IGNORE THE ARROGANT PEOPLE IN THE PRESS
  • IGNORE THE PUNDITS WHO SAY EXAMS ARE GETTING EASIER 
  • IGNORE THE POLITICIANS WHO HAVEN’T SAT A PAPER IN YEARS
  • IGNORE THOSE WHO HAVE FORGOTTEN WHAT IT’S LIKE TO STUDY HARD
  • IGNORE THOSE WHO ACTUALLY HAVE GROWN THE YEARS AND FORGET THEY LEARN AS THEY GROW UP
  • AND IGNORE THOSE WHO SAY “THAT WASN’T HARD”

Because I remember how hard it was.

Remember, Even if you got an F, You still passed the exam. And more than that. You’ve given your all and done your best.

Congratulations.
