So last Tuesday I got my Higher Exam Results (AS-Level if your English I think?) and I am happy to say I got straight As in my 5 Highers and the extra National 5 (GSCE) I picked up this year. Anyway I know that England got their Exam Results last Tuesday so I guess I made a little post so we can discuss.

Anyway I know that England got their Exam Results last Tuesday so I guess I made a little post so we can discuss. A few people in my school also got five A's at Higher. I was able to get two A's (History and RMPS) and 2 C's (Maths and English). Unfortunately got a D in Physics but I don't need it for what I want to do at Uni. Start 6th year on Tuesday and will be doing Philosphy, Modern Studies, Biology and Admin. (All at higher and only having done Biology previously [A at Nat 5])

[Insert "exams are too easy these days" cliche here] But seriously, congratulations on the results. My exam results were always below what I was expected, except in maths. 86/90 in my pure maths A-Level. (this was over 10 years ago btw). So last Tuesday I got my Higher Exam Results (AS-Level if your English I think?) I hope one of your A's wasn't in English.

I hope one of your A's wasn't in English. ...I'm more of a literature guy anyway xD I was expected to get 100% in my higher Maths exam and then it was legit the hardest thing I have ever done- they dropped the pass mark to 34%. And 86/90 0.0 thats really impressive! - - - - - - - - - - A few people in my school also got five A's at Higher. I was able to get two A's (History and RMPS) and 2 C's (Maths and English).

(All at higher and only having done Biology previously [A at Nat 5]) Did you do CfE Higher Physics? Because we did old higher (The only old higher I did) and it was really difficult! Well I did Physics, Chemistry, Human Biology, Maths and English at Higher and National 5 Latin last year. Next year I am doing Advanced Higher Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Physics and might do Higher Latin. What are you wanting to do at Uni?

Hoping to do either Social Sciences or something similar (considering politics) at uni.

I am not aware how other universities handle their degree programmes; but when I went to Aberdeen you could experiment with different subjects for the first year and officially change your majors in the second. I had quite a bit of fun with archaeology despite remaining with my original choice of joint English Literature / History.

I am hoping to do Medicine at Edinburgh- it's a six year course but I get a Medical degree and another degree from it. To be honest I'll go anywhere that'll take me but I am hoping for Edinburgh. Alternatively I would like to do Law and Politics- but since my personal statement is going to be science based primarily I don't think it'd be wise to use my non-medicine choice on that course
