Royal family's A-level results unveiled - including who failed

As students around the country anxiously open their A-level results today, it may serve as some comfort to know that just like them, even members of the royal family have suffered with the same nail biting nerves before opening the all important envelope.

Although the grades appeared to be modest on paper, it was still enough to secure Charles a place at Cambridge University where he went on to achieve a 2:2 degree in History. With these grades in hand, it meant William secured a place to study History of Art at St.Andrews in Scotland, but he later swapped courses to study his true passion Geography.

Well known for her competitive streak when it comes to her husband Prince William, it may come as no surprise to know that Kate beat William in his A-levels by scoring a higher set of grades. Although her SAT grades were never publicly reported, we do know that she secured high enough grades to study at Northwestern University, a prestigious private research university located in Evanston, Illinois.

As well as her O-levels, Anne also went on to achieve 3 A-level exams in English, History and Politics, although the grades have never been publicly confirmed.Largely considered to be the smartest royal, Princess Eugenie managed to secure two As in Art and English Literature and B in History of Art when she sat her A-level exams.
