90%, congratulations. Are you the first year to get A* grades for A-Levels over 90%? Well done anyway, that's quite an achievement. Durham, Warwick and Cambridge are real top level universitys you've done incredibly well to get in.

I wish I had tried harder in my A-Levels nowdays, I even went to Download festival the weekend before one of my A2 biology exams, then I ended up at a second rate university. Luckily I learned the value of hard work at university and ended up with a good degree and hopefully one day a PhD.

 

What are you planning to do in the future?

@Bold: these are AS results. I haven't put in my application for any of those unis yet.

I want to do pure physics research. Though I'm sure university will broaden that (Physics degrees can get you a lot of places) and I might end up doing an engineering job.

A* grades are A2 level only, I need to get 90% average on the A2 modules to get it. But since Cambridge is the only uni asking for it and even then only one it may not make much of a difference.
