I got a grade 7 (108 marks) in English Language, 5 marks off an 8.
Paper 1: 42/80 (Grade 5)
Paper 2: 66/80 (Grade 9)
I was shocked by the low mark in Paper 1. I decided to go a step futher and get the marks for each question.
Paper 1:
Q1: 4/4
Q2: 2/8
Q3: 4/8
Q4: 7/20
Q5: 14/24 11/16
Paper 2:
Q1: 4/4
Q2: 6/8
Q3: 7/12
Q4: 12/16
Q5: 22/24 15/16
The discrepancy between the two marks is alarming. To say I am shocked regarding the marks for Paper 1 is a massive understatement. If I were to remark Paper 1, I would need to lose 4 marks to get a grade 6 overall. However, since I have been given low enough marks on questions already, i doubt it would fall even more. I am 5 marks away from an 8, so I need your help and advice.
