    C2 Exam - How do you think you did?
    Just a quick poll to see how we all thought we did on C2 18th May 2012

    There's a markscheme from Mr M here:

    We wanna know how the grade boundaries have shifted, I guess this is a good method.

    it's not. perspectives of performance after an exam is extremely distorted and it kinda depends on personality more than actual performance.

    If the exam was easy, most people would think they did well. If it was hard, less people would be confident about it. So - easy papers have higher grade boundaries, harder papers have lower boundaries. I can see your point though.
