Did WJEC Psychology and the exams went ok but the results I got were surprising. Apparently WJEC have been known for not marking well... :s-smilie:

I did WJEC Film Studies and the course was fine I guess, and the exam wasn't too difficult because we were prepared for it. I am a bit worried about the end result however due to some vague or poorly worded questions in the exam meaning I may have answered the questions completely wrong despite writing a lot. Either way, I'm not too worried about the grade I get for the subject anyway

Same for me because the answers I used in my unit 1, I knew for sure was A grade because I used them in mocks and consistently got As. I know I sightly messed up on my unit 2 but I would have expected and overall grade B. My teacher is getting the scripts back and he'll read them over and most likely send it back for remarks.
Sorry, stupid phone. *How did you find Geography?

I did the same paper. How did you find it? I thought question 1 and 2 were strange and similar. Question 1 asking about why the people in Africa thought the charity was important and Question 2 asking how the charity improves lives.

And the poetry in Lit was dreadful lol.
