    WTG DD1!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    She is well chuffed.. she was kicked off all the PE courses bar the basic one and scraped a C .. and even managed to pass french which she didn't think she would.. Apparently the paper needs deciphering as to what subject is what grade.. but she isn't home yet..

    Well done! 20 GCSE's is a huge amount, is that all done in one year?

    ....niece did exactly as I predicted - 5 A*s and 6As - wants to do medicine, so science and maths in 6th form.
