90/100 in PSYB3 which I'm pretty happy with.
People who are upset with 97-98 UMS need to get out a bit more. :rolleyes:

C3: 98 A*
M1: 95 A
M2: 80 A
D1: 93 A
Comp2: 75 A
Physics 2: 113 A
German 1: 68 E (not happy)
German 2: 47 B

I don't know what it is, I just can't do the written German paper. I did even worse on the resit than my first time. And the grade boundaries on M2 weren't nice either.

my board is Edexcel. I found a converter for AQA on their website but nothing for Edexcel.
Do you think 88 UMS marks is above 90% raw marks? (estimate)

According to the grade boundaries 80% UMS is equivalent to 80% raw marks for this exam, so 88% UMS is probably about the same in raw marks. It doesn't matter how much over 80% you get, the A* only depends on C3 and C4.

General question to anybody but possibly mostly to Physics students:

Just got results back for a re-sit and got 94/120 UMS for Edexcel Physics Unit 2 (B grade). 2 more UMS marks would make it an A. Is it worth getting re-marked? Because, ironically enough, when I originally sat this paper I got a "high E", then got it re-marked and it dropped like 6 UMS marks. So it is possible for marks to change on Physics papers. But I'm just scared in case I lose marks again because every single mark counts (trying scrape every single one together as possible!)

Mine were Okish
AQA FP1 : 70B
AQA D01 : 92 A :smile:

OCR Chem Unit 1 : 78 A
OCR Bio unit 1 : 77 A
AQA Geog Skills AS : 45 B

By the way did anybody do AQA skills for geography, i was the onyl person to get a decent grade in my year, i'd like to know what others got because the marking seemed very harsh, i know people who'd worked their asses off making and learning model answers and got U's :confused:

My geography class did AQA Geography skills. I got 51 A. Most people in my class got Bs. Did you see what questions your dropped marks on? I done Fp1 too but the ocr mei paper and got 72 B :smile:
