So...about that low grade boundaries thing :tongue:

AQA Chemistry 1- U (I mean really? how the **** is that possible?)
AQA Physics 1- C (not totally gutted, still a retake)
Edexcel Maths C1- C (-_-)

so, 3 results, 3 retakes...****ing January modules. :unimpressed:

I knew I'd put far too little effort in.

Bio Molcls, Bdbsty, food + health: C [RETAKE UP FROM A D]
Chem: Atoms Bonds and groups: B [RETAKE UP FROM AN E]
Chem; Chains, energy and resources: D [RETAKE UP FROM A U]
Bio Unit 4: U
Chem Unit 4: U
(Failed my A2 disgustingly... retakes in June. *sigh*)

I really didn't expect these results and am beyond the point of crying. I haven't cried once today because I don't need to. I know I'm ****ed. The thing is I worked. I didn't not bother, I actually tried to work.

Any advice?

Well you definitely improved in the units you resat! I don't do OCR so it's hard for me to give you advice on what to do for each unit. Don't give up though, I know how dissapointed you still feel but you've got to keep working hard and hopefully it will pay off. You've still got time left till June to work on figuring out a plan/strategy that will help you ace those exams and avoid the same mistakes :smile:

PHYA4-120 (Not sure how I actually got 120)
CHEM4 - 120

100 raw marks in CHEM4. :colondollar:

I don't see why anybody negged this post. You weren't boastful or arrogant in any way about what you got or anything... people shouldn't neg posts just for being jealous of others' success. Clearly your hard work paid off, so good for you :smile:

Got a B in my edexcel history resit. Only confusing thing is that it says my mark is "76" despite the paper being out of 60? I don't get how that works

Yeahh you got 88 UMS not 88%. But 88 UMS equates to an A. The raw marks is converted to ums which then works how i previously explained :smile:

Use this:
http://www.edexcel.com/iwantto/Pages/grade-boundaries.aspx

go to GCE units: which shows an A to be in Economics unit 1, 68 marks out of 80. and a B to be 54 marks. So you must have got between these two marks. Which is the converted to UMS and shown in the document labelled: GCE UNIT UNIFORM MARK.

Hope this helps :smile:

Thank you. By the way my accounting is 1 mark of an A (AQA). Do you think it is worth it to get it re-marked? It's 59 to get A I've got 58. :/

SOSOSO HAPPY! I was expecting to have to resit that one again, but obviously not.

English Language B AQA- D (C overall when you include my coursework) not happy about that one, wasn't expecting much though cuzz I found the exam to be ridiculous. Resitting that again in June.

General Studies edexcel- U :cool:

BUSS 3: 100 ums
BUSS 1: 96 ums
C1: 88 ums
C3: 64 ums

Really happy about the business mark, really sad about the C3 as I was getting As in the practice papers and in my mocks. Oh well! 5 exams in the summer for me!

The maximum UMS for BUSS1 is 80...

Very unlikely, usually UMS marks are upscaled so dependent on how everyone else did it could be as low as 50% or as high as 90% raw marks for Edexcel

Cheers. I feel like re-sitting my C1. I don't know how many raw marks is 88 UMS but I was pretty sure I only dropped 5-6 marks. I did get an A overall but I'm scared if it ruins my chances of getting A* overall.
