Good luck to all of those getting results this week and next week.
If you’re a current Mallard Days student, we know that you’ve worked hard for the last few years, and we hope that you’ve ended up with the results that you deserve.
On the two Calculated Results Days, Richard will be available on Skype, Zoom or via email all day to provide advice or help you out (or indeed share in your celebrations!) – so please do get in touch via email (richard@mallard-days.com) should you want a chat.
Please also remember that if you haven’t been given the grade you were hoping for, it’s very much not the end of the world – you have a large number of options open to you (including actually sitting this summer’s exams in around 3 months time), so try not to stress too much: whatever happens, Mallard Days will be here to help you.
We do have a limited number of online slots available for preparation for the Autumn Series with both Richard and Vicky, both individually and in small groups, so please get in touch directly, and we can work out the best option for you.
Frequently Asked Questions:
➡️ If you are unhappy with a grade do you have to take all your exams in the autumn or can you just take exams in the subject you’re unhappy with?
Students will not have to sit exams in all subjects in the autumn. They may take exams in as few subjects as they would like to. If a student wishes to take exams in a particular subject in the autumn, they will need to take all the exam papers in that subject.
➡️ Will students choosing to take an exam this autumn still be able to go to university this year?
Students may still choose to take an exam even where their university or college place has been confirmed. However, it will take time for the results of these exams to be issued, so they will need to discuss with their higher and further education institution whether to start their course as planned or to delay their entry.
➡️ If students take an exam this autumn, which will stand – the exam or centre assessment grade?
Students will be able to use the higher of three grades: autumn exam, calculated grade, or certified mock exam grade for future progression.
