    I read about someone doing fakes once, but, can't remember much about it, it would be cheaper than getting a copy - can you remember your grades?

    Exactly so 9 GCSE's = £319.50

    It's not that exam board, it's OCR

  • I may be wrong but I think they all charge a standard fee

    Even at just a standard fee I couldn't afford it, I'm praying they might meet me in the middle and show some discretion, I had to sit a 2 hour assessment which included Maths and English prior to the offer, it wasn't easy either! So, that must count for something, you'd think.

    forget the job you been offered, this is the job to go for..checking exam results, you'll be minted!

  • It's definitely not £35 per subject. It's per application.
    If they don't hold your certificates you do get a refund. I know that's not going to help with the initial cost but anway!

    You need to find out who the examining bodies were for your area.
    Which county did you live in when you took your exams?
    If it's any help Essex/Cambridgeshire is OCR/Edexcel (I had to get hold of my GCSE's last year. Lost mine too)

    Also it can take weeks for your certiciates to show up.Mine took just over 12 weeks from sending off the application. Do you know how long this job is willing to hold it for you?
