Re: Anyone else doing AQA Classical Civilisations CIV 1F (Cicero) Module?1 mark off on a in the January paper, I'm doing the Odyssey this time around, hopefully it'll average an A overall.
Tip for those doing Cicero, don't make the same mistake as me, and write too much for the extended answer and shorter essay. -

Re: Anyone else doing AQA Classical Civilisations CIV 1F (Cicero) Module?I think they're quite high unfortunately - About 55/65 for an A- a great amount of people resit it, and get good marks the second time! Just missed an A in my mock (which was a '11 paper- totally ran out of time(Original post by La_Mignonne)
I think everyone avoids kinda post assassination...anyone know what the grade boudaries are like? Like are they high?
And anyone doing the Iliad next week?
) At least I know to be more concise now though! - as did all of my group :P Doesn't sound that high, but the marks you lose on essays add up very quickly.
For a B around high 40s.
I really hope a Cicero-Caesar is the essay q, I think that would be a really good one!
And yup doing the Iliad!

Re: Anyone else doing AQA Classical Civilisations CIV 1F (Cicero) Module?I looked through the boundaries (for Cicero) from 2009-2012 and they're all in the region of 41-51(mainly 47-51).(Original post by PatroclusFTW)

Re: Anyone else doing AQA Classical Civilisations CIV 1F (Cicero) Module?Yeah I thought the paper was fair
I did the 1st question on the 30 marker and thought that was fine too, what did other people think? And yeah I was quite short on time, but just managed to finish! -

Re: Anyone else doing AQA Classical Civilisations CIV 1F (Cicero) Module?section 1 (1st option) was alright but I didn't give myself enough time for section 2 (1st option) and had to stop writing after the formation of the 1st triumvirate (although I feel like what I wrote was sufficiently detailed).
