Well, a week or two ago, I did a GCSE controlled assessment (an exam question in the classroom as opposed to an exam hall) which we were allowed two hours to make notes and complete an essay using those notes. This question made up 15% of my overall English GCSE. Unfortunately, I forgot my notes page on the day, which placed be at a disadvantage, and declined the offer of being allowed to make a new set of notes in the interest of time (I had spent the first hour makin the original notes :P).

And I got the result back this morning in the lesson.

And..

It's an A! I scored 24/30 marks, 27 being required for an A* (maximum grade) (A: 24-26, A*: 27-30), which isn't perfect (I read through it and there's definitely room for improvement), but pretty... *ahem*... 'boss' considering that I was the only person with no notes. Of course, I wasn't the only person with an A, and quite a few people actually had B's and C's, so I guess there is still hope :P

And, for whatever reason, we got another assessment from last year handed back to us, which was for Creative Writing (which is my forté, obviously), which was marked on a scale of 10 marks. I don't know if it's part of my GCSE or not, but I'm assuming it is since it's marked with a letter grade ie. A*, A, B, etc rather than a number grade ie. 6.8, 6.5, 6.2, etc, that it is part of the GCSE.

Anyway, for that I got an A* I scored all 10 marks. Yay! :]

I could've put this in a blog post to make it look nicer but there's little point and I would get the same amount of Edits regardless. Yay for me! =D
