But yes it's VERY low boundaries (there's no other way to explain my A in it lmao)

2013 doesn't look nice at the moment

I just hope it's like the 2014 one, we used that for our mock exam and I got full marks :smile:

Is it the same for your other sciences?

I hope so too! I did the 2014 as a practice test in class and got full marks as well! :smile:

I haven't tackled the 2013 one yet, I'm currently doing a 2010 paper. I'll tackle it next I guess

Do you have any predictions for tomorrow's history paper 1? Questions that could come up?
Also, regarding today's English I found it kinda hard and also long. I was almost the only one who finished the whole paper.
And yes I mentioned how Anuja was passionate and Rufus arrogant and aggressive... :smile:

so I guess that is gonna be right. What did you come up with for the last point in question 1? I wrote something like it is gonna be tough over the next few months, but that love and tradition will win over money. You?
Good luck to you all :smile:

And good luck to you too! :smile:

Hi, I don't do coordinated sciences but you could probably as well include a mathematical instruments set as well, just in case....

Guys, if I didn't use 4 words or phrases from each paragraph (think I used 3😭) will I get marked down?

Yeah you would because it's a mark per paragraph so that's 8 marks ; as well as an introduction ( theme) for A and B. Although if you did them in depth I think you could get more marks?

I need help...I am truly anxious :frown:

I had history in the morning and we were supposed to leaven two blank lines between questions, but I left only one and once not even the one.
And yesterday I didn't cross neatly in my English.
Will I be penalised? If yes how?
Thanks

I did Question A in one paragraph and Question B in another paragraph; will I get marked down for that?

Also I didn't do an introduction for it - my English teacher never told us we had to write an introduction! How many marks will I lose for that?

How did you find Paper 6 today? I found it so difficult, I don't think I got any marks in the Chemistry questions...

I dont think you will.. This criteria is probably there for the examinor to mark it faster and more conveniently, but they really shouldnt take the marks off )

I feel the exact same!. I found the physics and biology alright. The chemistry one was pretty hard I think. I feel like i'll be lucky with 50%.

Yeah, pretty much everyone in my year who does double found it difficult. I thought Physics was okay too but I think I got some of Biology wrong too; I think I should have revised a bit more for Biology. I'm just thankful that Paper 6 is only worth 20% of the final grades! I really need to do well on Paper 1 and 3 now haha

Glad to know it's not just me then!. Yes, some of the Biology I din't like either but felt most confident with the physics. Yes, but don't worry, somebody told me grade boundaries are pretty low for co-ordinated science. Paper 3 you can pick up loads of marks. Mine is 20th, is yours?.

You remind me of my friend who was anxious this morning because he wrote down question six when he was actually answering question 7.
I told him I doubt that the examiner would award him a zero and that he could figure out for himself that he had answered a different question.

The same applies for you. The examiner will just rant silently in his head that you are illiterate and that you will complicate his marking.
