It's a huge day for students across England, Wales and Northern Ireland as they receive their GCSE results on Thursday 21 August.
It's a big milestone for youngsters as their GCSE grades are important for their future educational and career opportunities.
School pupils used to be awarded A* to G grades, but the numerical grading system was first introduced in 2017.
Students are now awarded grades from one to nine, with a nine being the above equivalent to the old A* grade.
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh's children, Lady Louise Windsor, 21, and James, Earl of Wessex, 17, would have been the first British royals to be graded in the numerical system.
Lady Louise is now studying for an English degree at St Andrews, while James will enter his second year of A-Levels come September.
While Lady Louise and James are likely to carve out their own careers, some of the royals already have their futures mapped out for them.
Despite this, some of the King's relatives have some impressive GCSE results, including the Prince of Wales.
