Hey everyone. So I got 5As and 1A in my IGCSE examination. Our school only offers 8 IGCSE’s out of which I got an A
in math,physics,chemistry,biology.environmental management and an A in computer science ( my mark was 89. Our school
changed the subject from ICT to computer science in the last couple of months so it was a big shift as I had to learn
programming from scratch with a bad teacher). I got a B in english as a first language ( was sick on the day of the exam,
was predicted an A* urgh) and a D in hindi as second language. Hindi as a second language is apparently for speakers
of hindi. I didn’t know this at the time, and only started learning the language from the start 2 years before the exam.
I got a good reading and writing score, but my school messed up the listening exam by letting the younger graders scream
in the corridors and I couldn’t write the exam.
I really want to get into a good school but I’m afraid these grades will ruin my chances of admission. Thoughts?
