#248 Does Sarah Ingham tell the truth about anything? Nein.
I have to say I completely disagree. As someone who got her English lit gcse back today and got an A* (we still use the letters in wales) you being a keen reader means nothing when it comes to an English lit exam. Yes it may make you more likely to enjoy the content yet by reading books like the ones Isabelle reads and most people our age read they would give you no advantage. You’ve got to be able to read into the tiniest details and memorise quotes and techniques for every character (6 characters in an inspector calls) and how they relate to themes. You’ve got to understand the social, historical and political context of the book/ play and be able to explain in thoroughly yet concisely.We all can see that Izzy is a a keen reader… you don’t have to be a genius to get an A/9 in an subject that you are very keen on and enjoy. I suspect it’s English lit that she’s got the high mark in. so I don’t doubt that is her grade in that subject
I got a B in English Lit, back in the day, after doing virtually no course work and just winging the exam. I have been guilty of just saying English grade B on various applications over the years instead of the C I got in English language.
As for the other subjects, she’s probably done the minimum number of subjects/exams possible and had more time to concentrate on them overall.
What winds me up Is Lazy’s hypocritical narcissistic post about how great it is to get a 9 right after preaching to the young impressionable Ifam that grades aren’t important….
Grade 9? Oh Lazy I think you’ve exaggerated on the lie abit here. A quick look at Isabelle’s Instagram and her reply’s to comments will show you she cannot even spell the simplest of words!There we go, big fat bitchy sarah who maintained that grades don't matter is now on gloating about her daughter getting a grade 9 in English. What about the rest sarah? Most kids do 9? And again she makes it about her, insuating that it was her home schooling that made Izzy achieve this grade. She really is a nasty narcissistic bleep
English she says. English what? Lit or language? bleeping liarof course she did…
Chris got his A* ( in Maths, I think it was) before A* was introduced as a grade at GCSE!Everyone is being unfair. She got a 9 in English just like Chris got an A* in A level Physics. Both are totally true!
She always gives it away by pushing it too far. First she wasn't going to share what she got, but she wants more attention (Sarah, not Isabelle) so she has to make out that Isabelle got the very best possible. If she'd just said, "she did well and we're all happy", then people could leave it at that but she has to be the best.
Give it a few years and it will have turned into an A**** that they invented just for Isabelle because she did so well.
I am a massive reader, always have a book on me, love language, wordplay, word puzzles/crosswords and generally have a pretty wide vocabulary, but I got C’s for English Lit and Lang at GCSE and an E at A-Level, as I am terrible at analysing and creating a cohesive argument! I loved the media studies part of the course, where we had to do interviews based on newspaper articles, create adverts, write blurbs/reviews, and actually did quite well on that.I have to say I completely disagree.

There’s no way you could cram for this exam and get a 9. And even then considering she only took 5 exams whereas all the other kids in the uk would’ve done around 16-21 depending on their subjects her getting a 9 isn’t that impressive since she had less to memorise and focus on. On most days I had 2 exams with around an 1 1/2 hour break in between.
We’ll never know if her results are true or not but if it’s a lie I find it highly insulting considering the effort my peers and I put into our exams.
Sorry about the rant.
thank you! im also a massive reader and despite getting good grades was never confident doing english and welsh lit since i could never analyse deeply enough and just can't help but think that the stuff we're arguing the author had no intention of creating.I am a massive reader, always have a book on me, love language, wordplay, word puzzles/crosswords and generally have a pretty wide vocabulary, but I got C’s for English Lit and Lang at GCSE and an E at A-Level, as I am terrible at analysing and creating a cohesive argument!

Congratulations on your mega grades, they are excellent and a reflection of all your hard work. What A-Levels do you want to do?
Please tell me she said ‘the trolls like to sprout’….This old rant popped up for me again creepy pipes up about 2:40
It’s the music in the background for meThis old rant popped up for me again creepy pipes up about 2:40
Seems a pretty obvious question, after bragging about a singular result, and one that somebody with nothing to hide would have no problem answering. A liar, on the other hand…What did Isabelle get in the other subjects?
"we're not putting anyone at risk by Chris leaving the country"This old rant popped up for me again creepy pipes up about 2:40
