Re: GCSE Results day March 2012Erm, AQA English Language paper, AQA Biology 1, AQA Chemistry 1, Edexcel History (Germany, 1918-1939 I think were the dates) and OCR RE (Medical Ethics & Human Relationships one).(Original post by Dalek1099)
What Exam boards?I'm getting Edexcel Eng Lang(40%) and Lit(resits)(50%),AQA Chem 1 and Phys 1(50% in total) and AQA Geography B-Coasts(25%)
We only have one in common!

Re: GCSE Results day March 2012agreed, the C2 wasn't bad, it was okay if you studied well...(Original post by star10159)
Na, Biology was ef'ed up, if you did AQA.
the AQA C2 simply tested your memorising skills and understanding...
but Biology was just unexpected, it was even harder because it was the first
exam of the year for some of us so our mind wasn't in exam mode just yet.. -

Re: GCSE Results day March 2012Oh man, so scared for B2, C2 and P2 results. I'm a very nervous person when it comes to results at the best of times, for these I'll be shaking like a friggin leaf. Also getting OCR Business Studies results.
Out of interest, does anyone know when the Examiners Reports are released after the results? Like is it on the same day or a few weeks after? I'm desperate to read the one for B2. -

Re: GCSE Results day March 2012to each their own.(Original post by star10159)
Na, i had freakin english re-sits. The reason who bio was hard was due to the incompetence of AQA examiners. So many ambiguous questions. -

Re: GCSE Results day March 2012I'm actually quite annoyed about the English Lit boundaries, the exam was horrid. Ah well, re-sits are available I guess lol(Original post by Dalek1099)

Re: GCSE Results day March 2012they can give marks out marks easer though because English Grade Boundaries rely on consistency between 8 possible books for each section and to compensate for a hard exam in one book they can give out marks easier.(Original post by thisisjokes)
