If it
isn't true, then the people who took 'O' levels in 1982 (the last year in which the results DIDN'T go up) must have been barely able to write their name.

A girl I know from school has just retaken her Maths and Biology GCSE (although why you would bother nearly 25 years after you left school is beyond me). By her own admission she did fuck all revision and got two 'B' grades. At school she was 'ungraded' for Maths and got an 'F' for Biology.

Now you could argue that whilst attending the university of life she picked up a lot of stuff that helped her - but that seems unlikely to me.

Incidently
This is from the Facebook status of the son of a friend who recently got something called an 'A star' in English:

"Everyone has to get down [town removed but there was no capital letter] and try the new milkstake shop its amazing ive just had skittles and jelly tots one theres loads marmite , chill anything u can think of try it"

I rest my case.

My mate
received an assignment written in text-speak. He handed it back and told him to do it again.
