i knowwwwwwwww :frown:


At least Psychology looks promising EffKayy; 43 for an A on unit 3 and 54 for an A on unit 4.
Don't forget that even though the grade boundaries are higher.. ): like in chem 5.. The examiners could be more lenient on the mark schemes.. Whereas if they make the boundaries really low, they are more strict on what you have to pit to get the mark because they would have already given us enough of an excuse if we didn't do too well..
GUYS.. is the AQA chem ISA 6T or 6X??

6T... You always need higher marks in the ISA compared to the EMPA

So pretty much every grade boundary for my exams is higher than I expected. Stalling pass rates indeed...

Bloody AQA grade boundaries! They've made my grades go everywhere. In Chemistry I'm expecting CAD in AS and UAU for A2 haha.

In Human Biology I missed out on B's in my two practicals by 1 mark :frown: So I think I'll get for AS BBC (C being 1 mark away from a B) and A2 might be BC (1 mark away) C.

This is what I'm desperately hoping for
I'm really starting to hate AQA :banghead:

This is more a reference for me so I don't keep checking and working out the grade boundaries, but hopefully it's useful for someone else too.
As is typical, for all my exams the grade boundaries are higher this year than any other year!

oh ok, thank you :smile: so should we convert our scale mark to ums now? is that possible, to convert it to an overall ums mark?
