AQA, language


Out of 30?,i think so,these should be the rough grade boundaries:

A*-27
A-24
B-20
C-16

Band 5:25-30
Band 4:19-24
Band 3:13-18
Band 2:7-12
Band 1:1-6

So,if you got the lowest mark in the band,you would get a C,the highest mark in the band,you would get an A and anything between,a B.

Cool, I recently did mine as well. I went to WHSmiths, got offered a job at 16 and got a free £10 voucher.

Was yours better or worse?
Well, I had to do case studies for businesses, and I worked for a market research company dealing with businesses in the fortune 500. Over these two weeks, I probably typed over 20,000 words about businesses. Yet it was very good experiences.

that sounds really interesting, explain more. also what exam board are you doing? because i'm doing AQA applied business and it's really boring. there's nothing practical.
