Hi,I know this is really random. But can someone tell me how the OCR CHEMISTRY ISA's work?

Because, I have done 3 isa's so far, and I was wondering do they select the ISA with the best mark? Or do they work out a average on all your marks!
PLEASEEE HELP!

I wrote about the symptoms and how they're associated with REM sleep going over to waking life - e.g. cataplexy where you suddenly lose muscle tone - in REM sleep you're muscles are completely relaxed.
Wrote a bit of research on it to do with a gene, something about dogs..
It was only a 4 mark question so you could have written anything to do with narcolepsy and pick up marks I guess

For the OCR chemistry ISA there are three parts; quantitative , qualitative and evaluative. There are 3 papers for each parts. If you do more than 1 i.e 2 or 3 papers of the SAME Part then the best mark is submitted for this SAME part.Each paper can only be attempted once. If you do only one of each part then you can only submitted this one mark of each part. I hope it makes sense.

thats what I'm like, but you cant show disappointment cause most of my friends do get B's/C's haha


Most of my friends at college hardley work so they aren't exactly getting A/Bs whereas I work hard and getting high grades, if I get below an A they have a go at me for complaining :rolleyes:
19 days! - waaaa :cry2:
Ight so what are you guys planning on doing if you do well come the 8th of March?

I'm planning on grinning for the entire day. I've never really been happy on results day (nothing much to be happy about in previous ones...) so yeah happiness would be a nice change :biggrin:

Just saw the ocr grade boundaries and I can lose up to 18 marks and still get an A! *bbm dancing face*


Ey where did you see this? On the website they dont have any raw mark grade boundaries.
I'm always just normal when I get my results, regardless of what I get. It's awkward when you've done better than your mates and they're more happier about thier grades then you are about yours :s-smilie:
