It’s apparently going to be at a midpoint between 2019 and 2021. Out of 335, So around ;

A* = 210
A = 186
B = 157

Bear in mind that Economics B examiners are harsh when it comes to marking, hence the low boundaries.

It was ok , the questions were quite nice except the last 20 marker with its wording. Did miss the second 8 marker tho cause I ran out of time

It was something like:

Evaluate the impact on European firms of an increase in economic power of emerging economies in south east Asia?
I read it wrong, wrote the whole 20 marker and only realised as I was evaluating at the end, thankfully I had 12 minutes spare so had time to write a mediocre response which probably only scored me 10 ish marks. However the rest of the paper I felt went really well so I don't think it would have affected the grade by much

Wait why is it out of 335? I though it was 100 times 3 papers?
they use a percentage system as paper 1 and 2 are worth 35% each and paper 3 is only worth 30%. So they times paper 1 and 2 by 1.1 something and paper 3 by like 1.05 and it makes the overall score out of 335. Super confusing I know.
