errbody releases them on wednesday

is anybody else really annoyed at the lack of past papers for A-levels. for some subjects its just he one they did this year, which is restricted to teacher access

Lol good for you. The first few modules are very easy so there shouldnt be a problem with the transition from GCSE to Alevels (well for me that is). But I noticed that the vocabulary in the textbooks can be a bit difficult (if you dont read much - like me).

Yes i know ! It was very different from the other past papers But i mean if we all did wuite bad then gb will go down
I never got told by my teacher and he said that you will find out on results day you ?

Eeeeek really nervous now!!!! My family aren't exactly helping. My sister (2 years older) was obviously going to get all A's and A*'s (she got 15 A*s) and was really nervous prior to results. My family was all supportive and really nice to her. I have genuine worry I have failed some subjects, and they're just 'oh get over it' 'you're not making the right choice for next year anyway so what does it matter.' And generally belittling me! It's driving me crazy!!

I have seen the paper for B1.
I can see the grade boundaries being much lower I agree.
However exam boards do have standards to meet so I don't think they would go so far below 40.

Also, if the line that they draw of the marks don't match what they need, they can increase other people's marks so it reaches the type of line they are looking for.
Yeah I think 40 is a bit high but I don't do statistics for an exam board.

Hope that helps.

I meant I would have put it higher 😂 At least 47 or something like that. But it doesn't really matter! I'm quite excited (and nervous) to see wgat the actual obes are in two days.

Good luck

That's really rude of them. You know everyone on here will support you. My family belittled me over my choices a little but my head of year was the worst, telling me I was throwing my life away because I didn't want to be a doctor. I know how you feel, try to ignore them and remember everyone here cares.

Oh you meant higher LOL
I can't read sometimes.

No i don't think it'll be high.
The media coverage also pressurises exam boards to lower the grade boundaries.
Remember hannah and the sweets

Do you think the grade boundaries will be lower for the p2 and p3 paper?
