Wow that's awesome!

How long did it take to get the remark back?
I sent mine off as well, if it goes up by 9 ums I'd be the happiest girl in the world :redface:


It took a while, about a week? When did you send yours off :-) and good luck!

Does anyone else think that marking was really off?

I got a C, 72/120. Far from what I expected

In my mock exams i got A and A*. Usuallly I can tell when I do a paper bad, that really wasnt a bad paper!

My friend got his remarked, went from a U to a C which is unreal!

I've put in a retest, do you think I should remark?

I have a similar situation except I ended up with a high D (70/120). I asked for a remark - I heard that there are only 5 raw marks between D and B so I thought it was worth a try.

It may be a little too late for a re-mark unless you've already sorted it out. Ask Edexcel themselves. I was put in for a re-mark and I still haven't got it back yet so there may still be a chance. :smile:

Hey, alot of the qs in the paper are not at all in the book eg. book only says t helper cells are infected by hiv. How are some people able to get those qs correct?

That is actually quite understood because macrophages WILL et any intruder and thus they will also get affected I wrote macrophages and t helper cells and it was right !!
Is anybody still waiting for remark results? I requested mine weeks and weeks ago and I still haven't heard anything back. :s-smilie:

I'm starting to panic because it depends on the remark result as to whether I need to resit.
