What do you do for a living marra?
I've had a few ask for my degree, too, but no-one ever wanted my A Levels.Only been asked for maths and English GCSE and proof of professional registration, no one's bothered asking for A Level or degree certificates.
Obviously a pimp.Nothing
You got meObviously a pimp.
Swot. Basically everyone gets decent GCSE grades now unless they're thick.2 A's, 4 B's, 2 C's, 1 D, a City and Guilds Foundation Certificate and a Higher Maths certificate.
I was annoyed with the D which was in French as I was good at that. A hospital procedure went wrong on the day before the exam. I was being tested for kidney stones with a radioactive tracer dye, but they missed the vein in my arm and injected it into my elbow joint instead. My right arm was badly swollen and I couldn't hold a pen, so I had to sit the exam by myself in the headmasters office and type all my answers with my left hand. I didn't even have kidney stones after all of that.

Everyone does great these days.It's changed to numbers now but I'm not sure how it works yet.
Big improvement from the last few weeks that mate. Have a like.When I left school, I passed every one of my exams with the exception of Greek Mythology.
It always was my achilles elbow.
Me too. Didn't get a single academic qualification until I was 49. Did alright after that like. Academia isn't hard if the subject is interesting and you want to learn .I failed every single subject me like. My best result was a D in art apart from that it was mostly F's.
Obviously a pimp.
I rebelled against the system, left with about 9 average CSE's but educated myself from the age of 18 and now have stacks of qualifications, like a Degree and teaching status. I realise now, that even in those young years, I spotted the crap of what was around me and fought against it. One reason I got into education was to hopefully better it so kids do not suffer the shit I experienced in education and receive a better education, thus chance in life to succeed and live a good life.Hated school and it didn’t really feel that the teachers wanted us there either. It was more like crowd control than an education with teachers having a strike day or 2 what seemed like every week.
I enjoyed those days more than the teaching / learning but that’s not productive.
I’ve done ok with 4 Cs but I know I could have done much better
Same report for me too. If he would only try, why would I try when I have ecstasy and acid to take you idiots?8 Bs and a C. I did enough to pass but never went the extra swotty mile to get an A.
It really frustrated the teachers as I spent more time f***ing about in class than doing work. They accepted the thick kids who messed about, but I was supposed to know better.
