I received C in PE and psychology and D in chem and E in bio. I want to do physiotherapy at uni, and am also getting psychology remarked as I got an A in one unit and was surprised to get a D in the other. Have I got a chance at getting into my course????

I got AAAB

My economics was 1 raw mark and 2 UMS off an A even though I got 117/150 when for an A the boundaries were 116

Is it worth asking for a remark and when's the deadline for requesting a remark?

I got 90 UMS a high A on paper 2 and 68 - a high C on the other

If it's one mark off in my opinion it's not worth it because you'll still have a really good shot at getting an A next year and it could easily go down too.

Deadline is sometime in September I think

It's tricky to decide, as you need to remember a remark can always bring your grade down, and while you probably wouldn't go down an entire grade, dropping a few marks would make it more difficult next year :redface:

The other thing you need to consider is how subjective economics is- subjects like maths and science are unlikely to change in a remark, whereas ones like history and English are. How strict would you say the mark schemes are in economics- more like English or maths?

I don't think I'm planning on continuing with economics but it would be nice to have an A in it if I have a shot at it? How long does it take to find out the remark mark

If you pay for a priority remark (deadline is Friday) you would know by the 31st. But I wouldn't advise this as it's mainly for A2 students who did poorly so they can still go to uni.

A normal re-mark takes 30 days.

Like I said personally I wouldn't but it is ultimately your choice

Ok everyone- this marks the end of year 12! You'll all be moving up to the year 13 thread now, which is over here. I hope your AS results were what you wanted :smile:
