    Cool I got a B but wanted an A

    Report bad ads?


    Thanks to Allah I studied hard and got a B for my first/out of 3 Maths GCSE exam! But then I found out I only needed 6 more marks to get an A!
    My mom is saying there is no need for you to resit, I want to have a career in Biomedical science - to become a Scientist. At the moment I am studying REALLY hard for my sciences. Do you think a B is enough? Or should I resit?

    Also sisters/brothers I know this is a bit off topic but I really want to have 30 beautiful chapters of the Qu'ran on my shelf, Not just 1 Qu'ran but 30 parts made into beautiful books. Does anyone know where I can buy these?

    You should be able to find out from universities what results they are looking for.
    Remember that you A-levels count. Your GCSEs are pretty unimportant when it comes to accessing university.

    If this is the first out of 3 maths exams, then don't you have two more exams to boost your overall result?
    I think I agree with your mum. Don;t worry about this one exam. You did really well and got VERY NEARLY an A. I can understand that it niggles you a bit to have missed the A so narrowly - but I don't think it is important in the greater scheme of things!

    Good luck with your other exams.

    Your A Levels are more important. Try to achieve the highest grade that you can

    Don't worry if you don't get the grade that you want. Just keep moving forward.

    Thanks for your kind responses

    I have another problem:
    My mum has said you got such a low grade you used to brag about getting A's ( which I didn't I said '' I'm going to try and get an A )
    and she keeps and saying that my high B is a stupid grade.

    Ignore what your mom said. B grade is perfectly fine.

    Yea I am disappointed w/ myself when I get less than an A or even less than a 90.
    Now I do so bad , I even get C's even 70s its due to me slacking off

    Anyways a B is gr8, atleast its not a C
    what do you mean, you want to separate the Qur'an into its chapters, I don't think you should do that, you can just buy the Qur'an whole w/ all of its 114 chapters/surahs I don't get what do you mean.

    I'm not sure how that system works but if you're so close to an A and confident enough, I'd say why not shoot for the better grade?!

    You should be able to discover out from colleges what outcomes they are looking for. Keep in mind that you A-levels depend. Your GCSEs are fairly insignificant when it comes to obtaining school.
