Re: AS/A Level Results Day March 8th MegathreadGrade boundaries arent released until tomorow usually, and these grade boundaries seem inflated for many subjects. Ive talked to many y13's and further mathematicians, and they all say the boundaries are stupidly high. Physics unit 1 and 4 are also inflated for the difficulty of the papers.(Original post by EffKayy)
I don't really know why people are questioning the legitimacy of these grade boundaries. They're from the frigging edexcel website! -

Re: AS/A Level Results Day March 8th MegathreadHad a quick look, woodland and solsbury look so nice!(Original post by Contrad!ction.)
Marlborough/Solsbury, but I won't be too worried if I don't get en-suite.
I had 7. 6 maths, 1 physics.
I just hope they stick them in the reg trays and don't deliver them during reg

Re: AS/A Level Results Day March 8th MegathreadAha, he wastes about 50% of the lesson complaining how Chem1 is GCSE. So I doubt a poor performance will be tolerated.(Original post by whatever_x)
Whaaat, are you serious?
That is just stupid! Ignore himm, if you're pleased with your results then forget what everyone else thinks
I've always been good at Chemistry as well, managed to get full ums in GCSE, not that it counts for anything
, so there's a fair amount of expectation as well.

Re: AS/A Level Results Day March 8th MegathreadWow that is good, oh yea I forgot you had STEP, at least you can knuckle down, destroy it and then move into Emma(Original post by hassi94)
Yep - 5 of them over 2 days in a row too 
C3, C4, M1, FP2, FP3 and PHYA4
Made up by the fact my only A2 exams in June are M2 and PHYA5. Though then I get another kick in the nuts in the form of STEP II and III.

Re: AS/A Level Results Day March 8th MegathreadMy physics teacher said that he'll find out when we do and my maths teacher (who's also a deuputy headteacher) refused to tell us when she finds out lol(Original post by im so fresh)
i heard that too. and last year my chem teacher knew our results on Wednesday during lessons. he told us he knew (not the results D:
but luckily i have a day off on Wednesday so will be hovering over the edexcel website waiting patiently for the grade boundaries to pop up.
I think the edexcel grade boundaries are up. Its either that or their mark schemes for all the exams. Good luck for results anyway

Re: AS/A Level Results Day March 8th MegathreadPhysics Unit 4 was RIDICULOUSLY difficult. Not one single person I spoke to in person or on TSR said they liked it and thought they'd done well. It had no maths in it! I'm really hoping these aren't the real boundaries, Biology Unit 4 is also stupidly high (8 more raw marks than usual) when nobody found that paper that great at all either...(Original post by AtomicMan)

Haha, why? I'm going to be staring at mine, looking for any signs of a grin/wink/frown/disgust.
