What would the grade boundaries be?


52- A* or 51, it was a bit easier than last year
Original post by Pro4TLZZ
something with the first and third column, paper was simple. was very simple to jan 2012 and jun 12 which were removed shortly before the exam


Yeah :smile: Why did they remove those papers?
I think I got 45/60........praying that's an A*! Made some silly mistakes too but gotta be grateful that the paper wasn't like B1!

Think I got an A, which I would be happy with. Paper was very good and I thought the 6 marker was great. Just a few silly errors I made and I don't think I got all the points needed for the 5 marker at the end
Anyone found the a list of answers yet?

I thought it was such a good exam that i knew lots of the answers to. However, i know i definatly got a few wrong and considering how easy everyone found it im really worried about grade boundaries - theyre going to be ridiculously high and i really wanted an A*. I think i would have preferred a generally harder exam to get lower grade boundaries
Great! :smile:Besides the fact i ticked copper sulfide instead of copper oxide:s-smilie:
guyz

answer was black soot due to incomplete combustion , right?


I said it was 'carbon' and then put '(particulates)' in brackets after. It was due to the incomplete combustion caused by the hydrocarbon burning in an insufficient supply of oxygen. Would I get the marks?

For the 6 marker I started to do it wrong and state the advantages of petrol over hydrogen but luckily I read the question again and crossed it out and did it correctly :smile:
