WE WILL COOK!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥(results day hopecore comic ft GCSEAVATAR)

HEY YOU

No one knows how tomorrow will go. No one knows what anyone’s grades will look like. No one knows if it will end in tears of victory or despair.

However, we know two things:

  1. You have a future. Just because it isn’t what you planned doesn’t mean it’s not good. You won’t know unless you carry on.
  2. WE’RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER! (cue high school musical soundtrack) Hundreds of thousands of students are nervous for tomorrow and we will all be done with it soon enough. Let’s move into the next chapter of our lives!

We’ve got this.

Best of luck and may the GCSEAvatar bless us all.

r/GCSE Minecraft server

Was anyone able to screenshot the server port + address before the mods took it down?

Hoping the mods here will be more chill as one previously supported the idea I think

Should I take A-level maths? (for PPE)

Hi! I'm going into y12 and my current A-level combo is Eng lit, philosophy, econ and politics. I was aiming for a law degree, however I've been leaning more towards PPE because PPE combines all of my interests and is a very flexible degree (which I prefer for the degree to be flexible so I have more job opportunities, while a law degree I feel is more rigid).

However most top unis (and the uni I want to go to) requires A-level maths for PPE and I don't hate maths, I quite enjoy algebra and statistics and stuff but I always struggled with the grade 9 topics at the end of the paper and I really dislike geometry (screw circle theorems).

And like A-level maths is considered extremely rigorous so I'm not sure if I should take it cause I want 4A* at A-level and I don't wanna jepordise my chances. Plus, I'm predicted all 8s and 9s (hopefully all goes well tommorrow!) except a 7 which is in maths so I'm not the worst at maths but comparatively, it is my weakest subject.

But I do enjoy it, and I'm quite hardworking like I'm sure if I tried I could definetly push myself to get an A* but anyway, the point is that should I take maths and do PPE, do PPE without maths but then I can't go to my dream uni, or just stick with law?

Advice on enrolment

My current school's 6th form enrolment is on results day and I want to keep it open as a backup. However the rest of the schools i have shown interest in begin or finalise their actual application process on that day. Not sure what to do as all 3 of the others are competitive 6th forms so simply getting grade requirements may not be enough to be sure of a place.

Sixth Form outfits advice

I (16F) am bored so I decided to try on my sixth form outfits - I will obviously rotate them etc, but I’ve attached pictures of some of the outfits I will wear. Can you please let me know if they’re okay or not? Many boys in my sixth form often wear suits but then on the other hand, I often see girls wearing really informal clothes, such as tracksuits. I’m paranoid about looking too formal/too much like a maths teacher😭

Also, in regard to footwear, I’ll probably wear the same pair of flats most days. I’ve attached my sixth form’s dress code too - any advice will be appreciated!

How do I apply for a railcard without photo id?

I need to get a 16-17 saver for starting sixth form but its asking for photo id and I dont have any but it doesnt give an option to use a birth certificate which is the only form of id I have. I know that I should be able to apply with just a birth certificate unless they changed the rules with the railcards. For instance two website i checked came up with the exact options in the photo. Do I have to go into a station in person to apply? Or is it possible to do online?

If anyone else has run into this issue/ knows what I can do to apply for a railcard that would very helpful!

Advice on what to get for 6th form!

Hey! This is a list of what I think I'll need, based off what I used most at GCSE and what my 6th form loosely reccomended in inductions (not very much guidance though). Was told I won't need a protractor or compass. I've got a casio FX 991CW, going to upgrade to the CG100 at Christmas. Carrying this all in a Kanken laptop backpack that I used in year 11. Is there anything I really don't need, or anything that I am missing? The ring binders won't be carried every day, but I was told I need atleast 1 for each subject to start with, but realistically atleast 3 for maths. I have coloured notebooks that are literally like the esso books you work in at highschool, all colour-coded for each subject. Ty! Sorry if this is too much!

So, I took my history gcse in 2025 and I’m only just realising I might have been scammed out of an 8

Hey, there. It’s me, the Tony Blair fan fic writer. So, if you read some of my posts. You might have known that I did my History GCSE in 2025 and that my school forgot to give me, my extra time during the early GCSE’s exams of this year.

So, I’m lying in bed. Thinking about results day and my mind flickers back to how my school forgot to give me extra time at the beginning exams. I then realised, I was supposed to be given extra time as well, when I did my 2025 history exams. I was two marks off of an 8. Now I was unaware I had extra time then and my school didn’t register it. But I was supposed to, and if I had my deserved extra time, I know for a fact I would’ve gotten an 8, cos I would have a slowed down and will have definitely gotten two spag marks-which would have gave me that 8

Hell, if I found out that I should have had extra time before December of last year, I could have contacted them and they would have probably given special consideration of 2%. Which would have changed my grade.

Now, it’s August 2026 and there’s no way for me to rectify it. I know someone of you reading this would be like “You still got a 7. I would be lucky if I get a 5 next Thursday.” And Yh, you’re right. But that was my grade. That unless I have the money and time to retake. I will be carrying onto 6th form and uni. I’m disheartened and did successfully hold back my tears rn, cos that’s my hard work. My schools forced me to learn two topic at once. I was dealing with my history exam while doing my mocks and some personal stuff. That’s my grade, that I rightfully should have gotten. That I will never get now. And that’s enough to piss anyone off
