Surely you wouldn't have a GCSE if you got an F? A pass is a C, no?
GCSE's also range from A* to F, so having GCSE's doesn't automatically mean you're excellent at English and other subjects. I could say I have 14 GCSEs but if they're all F's I'm not even qualified to work at McDonalds.

That's what I thought, shows that he has none then

No, GCSE passes range from A to G.
However, most 6th Form colleges / equivalent expect a minimum of 5 Cs at GCSE level, including one or more at the core subjects of English and Mathematics.

You do realise we're talking about you, in reference to the 14 GCSE's?
If, however, you're suggesting DrewF has no GCSE's - it's more likely he has them, than you. He demonstrates the ability to speak in full sentences, with Capital letters, full stops, and those other *pesky* things.
EDIT: In reference to Michael's post: Ah, of course it does! I'm an idiot for mixing that with the usual minimum grade to get into Sixth form!

Not now, no, 'coz Sky runs Ch5's news service. (Presuming it's a news-based service) And an even more cost-effective method: slap a Ch5 logo on the Sky News ticker during Sky Sunrise.

It's pretty poor that you're throwing my GCSEs into question. Unlike you I'm quite happy to tell you them instead of generically just saying I have them.
As an example my best grades are an A in English, an A* in IT and an A in Graphic Products which, you know, always helps when I'm trying to string a sentence together properly, at least attempt to make a decent mock, and know to use some decent programs and fonts when making them. I don't want to to look like a show off, but I'm trying to make the point here that having "GCSEs" does not neccesarily make you credible. It makes me far from credible, because it doesn't mean that I'm going to be great at mocks.

No, GCSE passes range from A to G.
However, most 6th Form colleges / equivalent expect a minimum of 5 Cs at GCSE level, including one or more at the core subjects of English and Mathematics.
Indeed, A*-C is a Level 1 pass, D-G is a Level 2 pass but is viewed as a fail by must colleges, sixth forms and universities (not that they care for GCSE grades).
Further to this, I don't care what GCSEs you've got, I've got 13 of them, that makes me no better at mocking, I didn't even get an A in English, I can still string sentences together and make everything I type vaguely comprehendible.

A*-C is a Level 2 pass, D-G is a Level 1 pass. Most universities require a GCSE C or above in Maths and English to enter.
