Edexcel A Level Economics A Paper 3: 9EC0 03 - 13 Jun 2022 [Exam Chat]

Considering question was about Kenya/developing economies, i assume you will lose application marks

Adding to this, you will still gain knowledge, analysis and evaluation marks but improper application means you can't access the level 4 analysis band

Ok cool! And on results day do we get a breakdown of our marks for each separate paper?

I think your teacher will receive your marks for each question and each paper (not sure if the marks for each question are recieved by results day)

But the developing country question wasn’t about interest rates? Was it?

I got so confused with the externality one I wrote negative externality of consumption because of the packaging when the dispose it it leads to more landfill waste and pollution idk I feel like I waffled and it should have been production externality instead

Pretty sure it was, said Kenya or a developing country of your choice. I might be wrong but that's what i did. One of the extracts also talked about interest rates in Kenya affecting investment

It won't say on your results sheet unless your school gives it to you separately

It's impossible to predict the grade boundaries. We don't know how everyone did on the paper. What we do know is that the grade distribution (not boundaries) will lean towards more A*s and As

If it helps, in 2019, round 71.6% was needed for an A (240/335) and 80% for an A* (268/335)

I’m inclined to assume grade boundaries for A* will be 78%, I doubt it’d be higher as the midpoints for years 2019 and 2021 lie at 77%. The Government stated that grade boundaries will be below 2019 and above 2021.
