To all the little smart arses bragging about their grades and shitting on others who got similar grades GCSEs are not as important as teachers say they are, obviously you should try your hardest but realistically the grades don’t mean that much numbers or letters don’t define how smart you are your knowledge does getting all nines or A’s does not make you a genius because GCSEs are only for college which is very easy to get in to you’re not Elon Musk you’re just good at getting things down and I know you think you sound all high and mighty when bragging about your good grades but honestly you sound like a mong keep this in mind
@@marrow2747 I will admit I do struggle in punctuation but if you were smart you would know not to reply because all you’re doing is putting me in the algorithm more
@@marrow2747 I think it's pretty ignorant for a person to demean others because they gained poor grades. When you gain knowledge, you use it to teach,help others, and advance the world - not bully people.
@@aaronmoefoe Hey dude you really should not care about these commenters, I think if you have a goal in the future and you pursue and achieve it, you are a very smart person.
As someone who got 87777666 in the 2023 exams i can tell you now that GCSE’s don’t mean jack all, especially when it comes to deciding the outcome of your future. I wished i never stressed as much as i did back then.
@@aaronmoefoe i have a question as someone who is going to college this year, did you do anything after gcses to go to college or did you just go immedietly after gcse?
@@ahmedabdelmagid890 I went to a gateway college which is where you do your GCSE’s again and also do some work experience and life skills, I’ve nearly finished it now which means in September I’ll be in a regular college and start doing my course, however some people who did courses like construction where it’s mainly work experience just went straight to normal college so I guess it depends on what course you do
Got my gcse results about 7 years ago and they go as follows. Maths: 1 English: 2 Media: Pass ICT: U Product design: Merit Physics: 1 Chemistry: 2 Biology: 2 Geography: 2 Mate I did absolutely fine, i now have a job that’s pays my way, and am taking further education in my field. These results did not define me, but did make the path harder. You’ve got to persevere and work hard from this point. I chose to fuck around, Drink, Smoke, Drugs and overall be a shitty student in school. I had to pay a small price for all of this. It meant success came harder to find. But it was not the end.
It’s not the end bro. If I was you, get any apprenticeship you can and earn that money. Tbh you could be making more money than many who get 9’s. No joke
@@dinger8487 Ya back then it was no equation sheet but a 1 is absolutely diabolical like I don't think me with 0 revision, 10% blood alcohol and being higher than the shard would possibly get me a 1 like that is actually ridiculous 😭😭
i mean, coming from someone who did shit in AS, GCSE's dont matter at all, but it says more about ur lack of effort and mentality that really doesnt sit right with a lot of ppl. people dont look down on you if you failed, people look down on you if you failed because you didnt put any effort in or try in any capacity. this should be something u take forward with you and use to shape urself into a better person.
I came across your video post. I very, very rarely post an opinion on the web but, in your case, *don’t despair.* Academic results are not *the end* of the road, they are just *a* road. There are different routes you can choose. The route you take has more to do with your motivation, interest, patience and vision. If you don’t consider yourself academic then look at apprenticeships in your favoured career areas. But, maybe, at this stage, there are three key areas to focus on - the first two are that you should endeavour to improve your skills in Social Arithmetic (a subset of maths) and Social Communication (a subset of English) - which will help you in later stages of life - and thirdly - finding your passion? Be realistic in your expectations with your current levels of knowledge and skill. We can’t all be superstars, RU-vid or otherwise, but we can all succeed in our way. Investigate what *experiences* (not necessarily academic) you need to progress your passion as a career. You’ve asked for content ideas for your channel. You’ve mentioned you are autistic. So this is an aspect of your personality that is you. I don’t know how autism affects your experiences in life. I know very little about the condition. So, perhaps, this could be a topic of your channel. *You have a story to tell - how my autism affects my daily life experiences*: learning, working, socialising, employment opportunities, support services you receive, the discrimination you may experience due to lack of understanding. A topic that will last for a lifetime - so endless opportunities to create content. You’ll need to teach yourself how to structure your ten-minute videos so they a less random and more focused - use the story-board techniques used by gaming developers, and film and television producers - Google it. You have access to computers at school, the public library, and even your mobile telephone. Everyone has a story to tell but a good story starts in its planning. You could start with a short title, structure your story with an introduction, highlight a key point or two, and conclude whether good, bad or hopeful - all conveyed within 10 minutes. But that might take more than 10 minutes to plan! (Ask your English teachers to help you with structuring your content or message.) You could start with “Autism and Me”: explaining to your audience- what is autism in general, what is your autism, and how was it diagnosed - what tests were performed, what types of tests, whether there is a standard test - and conclude if it is a spectrum. Then you could explore how autism affects you and your family “My Family and My Autism” How do you, your family and your friends cope in a variety of situations (e.g., shopping, household chores/routines/non-routines, social gatherings), how do they help you, and how do you help them understand, then conclude how to bridge the gap. You could follow this up with “Educating Autistic Me” What are your learning experiences and frustrations, how and whether your learning needs are being met; then conclude can the gap be bridged using state vs voluntary support services and do these exist? There is so much you could gain from the experience of putting together such content that can demonstrate abilities and skills you do not realise you have and which can be a substitute for or replace qualifications. Planning, research, scripting, editing, sound, lighting, producing and interviewing are just some of the skill areas you could develop. And - you’ve already started to use these skill sets. Amazing!
hi boss quick heads up as a british 16 year old y11 your GCSE results are pretty important and you cant do very much with a U in everything for his collage choice he will need at least 4 GCSEs and im pressuming he is currently resitting maths and english but he definitly hasnt passed the since he got a 1 and a U so dont Yap boss man he is done. He though the capital F in combined science stands for Physics Correct me if im wrong do you spell its PHysics or Fysics ?
@@Shedcast_the F stands for foundation, which means the max grade possible is like a 5? Its made to be much easier than Higher which can go up to a 9. confusing that he didn’t know that since usually you at least know what exams your taking, if he doesn’t know that then its clear he doesn’t listen in class. If you dont put in the effort of course you will not get the results. Fuming how people who try so little get bunched in with people like my sister who genuinely tried but failed maths because she just cant do it (but got 9 in english so shes sorted really).
@@OilRig-1I wasn’t that I didn’t listen I never got told and because I have autism I was put in bottom set for everything with kids who were like that so I was always distracted
Getting my results this august, only got a week and a couple days till im done. Watching vids like this to reassure myself im not the only one failing these 😂
In my mocks i only passed english language, doing my gcse’s atm To everyone else who is doing there gcse atm, keep revising as much as you can and try your best in the exams. If you put in the effort and know you did your best, the results don’t matter
gcse's- the first step to get out of prison By prison I mean school- wen have been locked up in prison for 5 years- we are close to getting 2months bail
ngl i really appreciate this video as the exams i have done so far i believe have gone so poorly meanwhile my friends are all saying they are the easiest things with grade 9s. In all honesty exams have put me on sertraline so i could not give a fxck anymore as already i know no ones proud of me. Once again thank you for this not to sound horrible but it makes me feel less alone
Listen ignore what all the idiots tell you if you can get into college you’ll be able to redo them and trust me they are way easier in college and if you do that you’ll be able to get the course you want and you can do what you want to do these results do not dictate your entire life you can do whatever you want if you put your mind to it and focus on getting there okay
I failed my results 6 years ago and to this day I got a really good paid job. Qualifications don't define your future but having no capacity or personality you're going nowhere.
I’m stressing about my GCSE’s I’ve got autism as well and I’m in bottom set in everything. I’m predicted to fail everything. Yesterday when I had my chemistry paper I had to give up and I had to give up on maths. I’m soo dreading august when I get my grades because I’m up for failing, and I’ve had meltdown and I am stressed cause of school life and GCSEs, so can’t wait for them to fucking end in 4 weeks! Wish me luck mate!
You’ll do well bro I managed to get into college and bunk them up to 4’s you’ll be sound bro honestly schools actually need to research autism and teach it to students so much bad shit happens to us because of it
mate i have autism as well, these times are gona be extra hard for us but we just gotta do what we can do, if we give up, we will never know what we could have achieved, try your best for the next 3 weeks and then relax
@@aaronmoefoe thats all that matters, if you know in yourself that you tried hard, thats all you need to care about, the grades dont matter and they never will. proud of u and all other neurodivergents
im facing my first mocks soon and this has made my day better knowing that your in college with those results, im probably gonna have 4's or 5's as my final result so im feeling good
i failed all mine too,becuse i was young i only sat them because it was the done thing, and everyone else had to do it if i had the choice i wouldnt even bother sitting them
@@FusionDarp there’s gateway colleges which allow you to do ur functional skills again and if you were a few short for the course you wanted to do you could still do ur course while re doing ur GCSEs
just make sure to pass english maths and science, thats 5 gcses (6 if ur doing triple science. english is 2 cuz lang and lit) and u should be fine. revise those 3 subjects as much as possible and u should be able to get at least a grade 4 in each, u still got 2 months which is actually a lot more than u think especially if u just want the bare minimum grade to pass core subjects
@@crazydude449 i got moved from triple higher science to combined foundation although I may be moving up to combined higher. also english im failing hard fsr
I got 6 9s an 8 and 2 7s with very little work (comparatively), which led me to be very overconfident and I made some stupid decisions since then. I’ve just retaken my first year of a levels and I’m now a year behind. GCSE’s aren’t gonna define your life and don’t let them stop you doing the best you can do and don’t underestimate yourself, you’re value isn’t based on whatever is on your gcse certificate. The one thing I will say is that getting the basics of maths and English down might be a requirement for some basic jobs so If you want help with any of the gcse stuff so you can retake, lmk and I’ll help. Good luck bro
Tbf your pinned comment is right, only reason I'm trying to do well in GCSE's is because I actually enjoy my subjects, especially maths, and I need an 8 to do it in 6 form, so for me it's kinda like checkpoints in a marathon that I have to go through for the final prize
Really sorry about your grades. I hope you’re feeling better after a year. I can tell you for a fact that your GCSE results do not determine your life trajectory. Plenty of people I know are doing well without them. I rarely have ever experienced job interviews where they ask for your GCSE grades. A little trick is that employers will rarely ever verify your grades so you can just fib a little and you can get away with it. GCSEs rarely matter to employers and only matter more if you’re going into further education. I can tell you that what employers look for is experience and GCSE’s do not really enhance that, it’s by volunteering or if you’re lucky finding jobs to enhance said experience.
Cheers bro I’m doing well rn apart from people coming here to start arguments I know how they work bro and I’m doing well in college, I’ve bunked my English and maths up to 4’s so it’s all good
Well I’m about a month away from first gcse exam, biology. It’s been nice knowing you all 😂 Praying for a 5 in maths and I’m on track to get an 8 in both lit and Lang. Shitting myself about science tho lol
@@mcuziman Honestly I always just loved reading and being in depth with characters. For language I just naturally like it. It’s maths I need to work on for tmmr lol
Dude it’s okay don’t beat yourself up about it I know many people even in year 12 that failed all their igcses and they are doing just fine at A level. The whole system in fact is kind of bulshit and stressful for even top level students they buckle and fail some of them because of the stress
Are you in a levels now? Just a reminder, that grades do matter but to a certain extent. If you did the hard work, then you shouldn't be disappointed. Remember hardwork>result. So please keep pushing and you can do this!!
brotha me and my asian homies, we average 7s and 8s but that's cuz we either do stuff we like or we're just nerds, or we're just early bloomers. your life is like a flower, when you find something you love, you'll bloom but in order to find it, you'll go through a lot but that's just part of it. i suffered ages in primary getting yelled at by teachers for my strong ADHD disorders, but then when i bloomed it was all easy. (tbh i don't have 344 subs, in other words, 344 people who support me in my stuff. Think about what you have, not what you don't have)
@@aaronmoefoebtw I’ve never ever thought of this in my life but I don’t revise anywhere near as much as my other friends who revise like 2-3 hours daily and still get pretty good grades. Except English Lit ain’t lit but shit
@@aaronmoefoeother than that I feel like I’m yapping too much but I’d like to conclude, hearing someone who relates to this pain of not meeting your expectations is incredibly comforting. I feel like there is no limit to hope and I’m glad to know we haven’t given up. We can push each other to our limits alright? Other than that keep working on RU-vid, something about this video gives an insane vibe you got some chance in here. Keep that in mind
Im worried for mine because i need to do well so i can move schools because i hate everyone here they’re all horrible and they stink (genuinely) even if i dont get the grades i need i dont care ill resit im not going in next year wanting to die every day i dont know if id survive. so like lots of pressure ussually use punctuation too i just cant be bothered with this anymore
As said, shitty results are not everything bro, don't let that define you and don't let negative people who are "smarter" define you. you define yourself and choose what you want. i believe in you, i have faith in you. i've learnt this from a movie called "Ferris Bueller's day Off" you should watch it its really good and its all about freedom of teenagers doing whatever they want. Also good luck in collage hope you do well there
Cheers bro it’s just annoying with all of these dumb kids starting arguments for something that doesn’t concern them which also happened nearly a year ago but yeh cheers bro
GCSE's arent that important in terms of usefulness of knowledge, but they give schools a sense of your ability to handle rigorous syllabus of further education. Still so many people don't do so well in GCSE's and still end up doing well in life. It's not as important for the reasons your teachers tell you, but by all means do your best to do well in it if at all.
I know bro I’m in college and I’m doing well and I knew that from the start I was just joking in the title mate but there’s so many retards in this comment section who seem to think that they’re a genius it’s actually shocking
@@aaronmoefoe gcse is child's play compared to further education, so anyone who thinks they're a genius concerning gcses will get humbled sooner or later.
@@yesblocky yes, so if you fail your GCSEs, the foundation of your education, then there is near to no chance of you then passing further education. A levels are hard no matter what grade you get in your GCSEs
@@karmarama9567 People with closed mindsets like what you're saying is the reason for that. I was a D student in year 8, never haven gotten higher than a 50% in any sort of maths test or exam. But I put in the work and by God's grace I got to set 1 within 1 year, I was tested to write early igcse maths and I got A*'s in my mocks and I wrote this years m/j series and I'm still in year 10. Right now we've started AS maths (I am still in year 10 keep in mind) and we're working our way quickly through the syllabus. What I'm trying to say is there are so many reasons why someone could have failed their GCSE's but that doesn't mean they have no future. There's no one that's failing right now that wouldn't be passing if they didn't discipline themselves, following a study regimen.
honestly bro i got all 3s and 4s as well and the thing is bunch of papers and numbers wont define our future....... there is so much more our generation can do...... in ours now its all AI and bunch of other internet shi that can make you stupidly rich u name it...... put ur head up mate and dont let bunch of nonsense that u wont need in ur life bring u down and make u feel like that im sure u will make it in life in so many ways without NEEDING any of those gcse crap
Thank you bro so many people in this comment section think they’re so smart cos they got good grades but at the end of the day they’re just numbers and all GCSEs are for is to get into college which is easy asf to do
@@aaronmoefoe I know bro it's all matrix shi Everyone is getting a degree and getting a 9 to 5 Imagine if U could do something that other people aren't willing to do.... U jus gotta find it and it might take some time.....
Well naturally I’m just bad at maths however I had a very bad education in maths and when I say that I mean my primary school didn’t even let me do my maths sats and then in highschool they put me into maths bottom set which idk why tbh cos I was actually doing well in middle set but they just randomly moved me down to where all the naughty kids were so yeh I never really got a proper maths education
@@aaronmoefoe just because you didn't get a proper education in a subject doesn't mean that it was impossible to even pass the exam you just needed to have put in the extra effort and revised using other information
@@aaronmoefoe I don't see how that question is in any way surprising or the answer obvious. For a 1, you'd likely have to write a sentence or two. Evidently that isn't trying but I was merely curious as to whether the process had been difficult for you around revision time.
@@wistfulwriterthingy12 or maybe it’s cos I’m autistic mate yeh I might’ve failed everything but that’s not because I just couldn’t be arsed I did try I’m just not good at focusing
im in the process of doing my gcses atm i have no hope for myself because my attendance is balls but i mean i hope i at least pass still since like yk i am trying to at least get into a college for a levels
Depends, you have to pass English and maths as the generic government requirement in order to even get a job. But then again if you do fail them you can retake them in college. Luckily for me where I live I have to pass one of them in order to go to that sixth form, but I'm not tapped like that guy in the video since I actually try in my exams
@@aaronmoefoe Didn't say I was hard. But I'm pretty sure you would had the support prior to you're GSCEs exams in the severe case if you knew for the fact you would have failed and your teachers from those courses. Other than that that's good to hear your going to a college currently and too wish the best of luck in the future 🤙
@@bigbeau1758 I have autism and my town as a whole is very uneducated but in school they put me in the room with people who had worse disabilities like down syndrome and Tourette’s and they put me in bottom set for everything as well which also had the naughty kids so I didn’t really get much work out of anything
It turns out it means foundation I was just never told and college is going really well I’ve bunked my maths and English up to 4’s and I’m doing really well
Its only up from here mate, I left school in 2017 and am doing alright. Go to college for your maths and english and youll be sound. Some people learn on the job instead of in the classroom, im a bit like that and maybe you are as well. Best of luck mate
yo i have autism too mate youre funny as hell i just seen ur other videos ur a cool person tbh tho u swear a LOT cant lie its a bit distracting... funny content man could u tell me bout ur interests apart from gaming? favourite games? i like games too i seen you play red dead and i just finally got into it after years of wanting it recently
Yeh sorry about that I grew up with a lot of swearing so I do a lot unfortunately, but one of my favourite games is probably bully made by rockstar who made red dead. It’s a very underrated game and I wish it had more attention because it’s so entertaining and you can do a lot of funny stuff on it too and besides gaming not much I like making up little stories in my head which is why I want to be a game developer because I want to make games about the little stories I make up so yeh
@@aaronmoefoe oh na thas alright and i might have to check that game sometime i get u about underrated games… i play old ass games barely anyone plays i get u that’s cool tho i hope u become a game developer or smth i’m gna get to art school and i like drawing, writing stuff and working with animals! i’ll have to see bully might actually watch ur videos on them when i get the time cuz i saw them on ur channel but i didn’t watch em yet sorry for how long this is man i didn’t even realise
@@Joesmith-mx2rc it’s okay bro and cheers man and you’ll do well in art bro btw if you’re gonna watch my whole walkthrough on bully the first episode of it is the first video I made so they’re gonna be terrible quality but it’s only for like the first few episodes but anyway cheers bro
