Shocked by grade boundaries

I did AQA GCSE core science.
My physics teacher always said don't worry too much about the exam in physics if one third of the paper is right you will probably have a C. We all though because of last years boundaries it would be similarir as well but then I just opened results and got..
74/100 = B
68/100 = C
59/100 = D
I thought this was very high did anyone else feel shocked??????
Those are most likely UMS marks which aren't the actual mark. The actual mark may be a lot lower but will still be a high UMS mark.
Those are ums rather than raw marks, he meant if you get a third of the raw marks right you'll get a C which is equivalent to 60-69 ums
Thought the grade boundaries were ayt tbh :redface:

I'm surprised at the Biology grade boundaries. I expected them to be higher.
I predicted you needed 22 marks for a C and half for a B.


Chemistry grade boundaries were quiet high, in my opinion. That exam was the second hardest. I would of thought at least 20 marks for a C.

Physics were quiet low as I expected. 19 marks for a C.

I remember in the 2012 Chemistry Paper, you needed 12 marks for C. :eek::eek::eek:
