I got 2 As and 9 A*s in my GCSEs!!!!! ...and I'm not ashamed to gloat about it either.

Exams you take at 16, for foreign-types.
Anyway, congratulations. That is really good. Extremely good. Now you should go outside!

And drink beer. And have sexual intercourse with women of the opposite sex. And gloat some more.

Wouldn't a "woman of the opposite sex" be a man? Choo-choo...
And is an "A*" better or worse than an A? Or is it just an A w/ a wildcard after it, so you can add in a + or - as you see fit?

An "A?" It's been so long since I've seen one of those, I had almost forgotten what one looks like...
Congrats on acing the exams. Now, you just need to kick back a bit and relax. Party with some pretty, young thing that catches your eye until the sun rises.

Lee is, of course, fulfilling the required "old man" role of declaring that exams are easier than they used to be. I'm going to have to start doing that soon.
Anyway, an A* (A Star) is the highest of all possible grades you can have. It shows you are a super intelligent person who probably has BO issues.

Wow, with Liam's explanation, I'm definitely impressed. Congratulations!

As for the rest: Beer drinking, check; women, not so check cos I'm in Lincolnshire and there are 2 attractive women in the whole county. Both of whom were busy.

Congratulations mate, I'm sure you worked really hard for them...unless of course you're one of those people who does no work and still passes all exams well, in which case I hate you!!!
