Sir_Catherine Emmanuela I find this fact quite amusing: Camilla is cleverer then Diana because.... Wait for it.... ... Camilla got 1 GCSE where as Diana got none! 'GCSE'...what is this?I hope I don't stand out to badly as an ignorant American in this guild.
General Certificate of Standard Education...I think.
They're the exams you take at 16, before you get the option of leaving school.
To put their achievements in context, I got two of them last year for a class I took only one lunchtime every week.

Young Enterprise. Its worth the equivalent of two GCSEs and you can't possibly fail the exam unless you turn up without a pen.
I also made £50 out of it biggrin biggrin

We don't have that at my school, but I do ICT (quite easy, I'm not bothering to revise because I got 100% last time I took a test last week) which is the equivalent of two. However, I would like to have done Astronomy and Latin GCSE instead of Art and French.

Emmanuela I find this fact quite amusing: Camilla is cleverer then Diana because.... Wait for it.... ... Camilla got 1 GCSE where as Diana got none! GCSE - General Certificate of Secondary Education. Not meaning to be contentious but I doubt the accuracy of your source as GCSE's weren't introduced until 1986 so Camilla Parker Bowles couldn't have taken them. She would, however have taken the School Cert, which was more like the American Graduation exam, all subjects contributing to an overall pass or fail. So passing her School Cert was not an indication of her being thick - rather the opposite. Dear Diana was educated as I was, taking separate exams in each subject with the higher standard at O-Level and the lower standard at CSE. So you see, her inability to pass even one CSE is, unfortunately a good indication that academia was not her strong point.
