That would be really harsh if you weren't allowed, if they don't let you, you should probably write in, since 2 marks is definitely gainable :smile:


I definitely risked my question 5 and 6, hopefully it may pay off if I get it re-marked

I'm sure if you got an A then nothing did go wrong, it was probably more a matter of subjectivity (is that a word?). Did you get two A*'s in your coursework?

Nope, I was one mark off an A* in my written coursework and I got an a* in my speaking :smile: What about you?

Just remark it, you won't have anything to lose, I got an A and the ums mark I got is 266. Does anyone know the ums mark for an A*? WAS SOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY WHEN I GOT MY A, doing the IGCSE english language exam and literature now, hopefully get an A in both of them as I got an A in my igcse mock.

I know for GCSE 270 was the boundary for a*, but not sure about IGCSE...

Oh thank you, there's no point getting it remarked then, I'll talk to my teacher tomorrow about it and IGCSE an A* for paper 1 is A* 41/50 and paper 2 48/54, which is achievable I suppose, my friend just told me, but thank you anyway :smile:

I got an a* in both, but I was just on the boundary for speaking and listening! That's why I was quite disappointed, because I knew I had done well in my coursework, but then I ended up get an overall A, cos I got 100/120 UMS for my actual exam. What did you get for the exam?
I got an A* in mine :biggrin:

I got 264 ums which was 3 raw marks off an A* so I presume you would be around 2 raw marks off an A*


I got 260 ums, is this 4 raw marks?

Hi,

I just got my English Lang results, I got an B but I am two marks off of an A, anyone think it would be worth a remark?

Anyone that has got a brain would remark if its really 2 marks however remember there is a chance it may go down to a c Grade which happened to my friend Lol (had a A and went down to a B) so its your call but i would go for a remark :biggrin:
Got 287 UMS. Smashed it!
Does anyone know the grade boundaries?

Want to know how close I got to A*:h:
