    Exam Boards
    What exams boards are you with?? Cos they all seem to have problems...
    For example, I'm with OCR for Latin and they keep getting people's names wrong in the papers. And I'm with Edexcel for English, and they graded the papers competely wrong for our school back in January.
    So I just want to know which boards you're with and which ones you think are the best x

    Thanks for your reply - OCR has proven to be fairly good; I'd really like to find out what AQA are like

    I'm with WJEC for everything except science and drama, which is OCR and Edexcel respectively.

    I don't like WJEC much, OCR seems decent
