Out here latley they have the whole mid year report thing is in sentences relating to letters like A= excellent in all areas;
F = could have done better. then teacher comments come down the line at the end and they are to scared to speak the truth the idiots its all glossed over these days.



Should be

A = Achiever or Ass which was it?

B= Bastard! You just missed out didnt you!


C= come to after school revision and you may get a b next time.


D = dunce cap is next you know!

E = Excellent work socializing you git this a school your here to learn.


If it was my kids may take more notice.
It's a 2 year vocational qualification for 16-18 year olds which leads you onto University. Or just to show that you've been educated at a good level. You can study them in some schools (Known as sixth form) but mainly colleges. There was a sixth form centre at my high school and that's where I studied. You study 3-4 subjects.

And yes they are marked by grades A, B, C, D, E, U.

Here's a little more info GCE Advanced Level - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nice to know that you got a good result. Hopefully A means excellent in your country. Do you have benefits for getting an A? Like discount from your tuition in college?

We don't have that kind of qualifying exam in my country. However, in the university I attended, we have a very competitive exam and those who passed are considered "scholars of the country". I had my undergraduate and post graduate studies without paying any tuition. I also had my 6-month review for the CPA board exam free of charge.
.. and you would think that considering all of that, you would have the thought capacity to make you less of a groupie.
