    Can only wait and see, hoping the time passes quickly! Though with this weather, likely to drag! Will you be going on holiday anywhere?

    There were unofficial mark schemes up somewhere if you want to know how you did in maths (If you can remember any of your answers )

    I did take a look at one point hehe, it's difficult to know how many marks I will have got for methods and working out though So I'll probably have a high B/low A depending on that and the grade boundaries

    I was hoping to get straight A*s and As but I know I'll have 3 or 4 Bs. Lack of revision so I'll only have myself to blame What about you?

    What exam board was your maths exam? I'm looking for an unofficial mark scheme for OCR

    Also, for GCSE maths, if you got the answer correct, you get the full marks for that question, regardless of the working out.
