OCR Biology Remark.

I wanted to know if it is worth remarking my biology papers if I was off 8 marks to get an A
No, 8 marks is a lot and bio is not a very subjective subject

I'm considering, too. My marks were lower than expected to be honest.

AQA Bio here... my grade was lower than expected and i've applied for a remark to try and make up 5 marks...

If your uni place rests on it then I would definitely go for it - im losing hope for my cambridge offer because 5 marks is a lot to ask for biology

I ended up with 62, 49, 39. I was honestly expecting 67, 59, 45-46. How many marks do you need??

Probably not. I was 2 marks off an A. I sent all 3 papers off. I got 2 papers back today, and between them I only gained 1 mark. Just waiting on the last paper to come back now. This is for OCR bio A.
