Good luck to others waiting on Scottish results this week - and , for others in other parts of the UK, it won't be long your your turn either!
Sounds similar to my son, he mentioned yesterday about it only being another 3 days and that he can’t remember if he signed up for a text or just an email so I’m sure it’s been playing on his mind. I’m feeling quite nervous for him too.

Good luck to all who are anxiously waiting on results, won’t be long now till the wait is over.

Best of luck to all. DS went to Uni last year but he has friends sitting highers and advanced highers who are really worried how this pans out, especially as a big factor in the grading is the past record of the school. Spoke to a teacher friend yesterday who is expecting phone meltdown on Tuesday when results are not as expected, by parents in particular.

I am definitely more nervous for my son than he is. Some of his teachers told him of his predicted grade and I’m so worried that they will have been pushed down by the SQA. He is only at National 5 level though so not waiting on results for uni. He’s doesn’t seem bothered at all. School isn’t for him and I’m surprised he wants to stay on for a 5th year. He is a bright boy but done with studying. I’m hoping he changes his mind tomorrow once results are here and is ready to put the work in for his highers as I don’t want him to waste 5th year like I did!

My daughter is waiting for GCSE results. She didn’t have the best mock results as we had a family funeral and as it was ‘only’ mocks she let it slide a little.

As long as she can do the A levels she wants I don’t think it matters for her, but she does want to do A level Maths which may be touch and go.

Just been broaching the subject of the exam results coming TOMORROW , with my son, he says he will be glad to get the wait over with, but honestly he is SOOO laid back, never flaps! If he is nervous he doesn't show it, unlike me, a proper stress-head in comparison, (but I suppose calmness is a good quality for a prospective Doctor! )

He is getting his results by text message tomorrow. He says from 8am

He's been predicted all As in his Advanced Highers in Chemistry, Physics and Biology, and had all As in his prelims so hopefully he will be fine. Arghhhhh.
I just know I'll have a more sleepless night than he will!

Good luck to all our young ones - and to all mums and dads also nervously waiting!

Good Luck for all the Scottish getting their results.

I feel for my DS who gets his BTEC results on his birthday
