is this aqa chem? how far off are you from the grade you need/want?
Hey, yeah this is for chem aqa. I'm a mark of an A. I need an A to apply for med next year so praying I get it. I thought my paper 3 mark seemed quite low compared to how I felt after the exam? Really hoping for the best!! How about you?
hi guys i am one mark away from an A* in econ and idk whether i should get it remarked. I have a max of 26 marks to lose in order to stay within my current A grade but im scared it might bump my grade down (worst case scenario). Do you think I should take a risk and get it remarked?
Still haven't been able to talk with an English teacher to discuss my daughter's remark... missed her predicted grade by 2 marks. Was advised by assistant head to talk to her teacher but four days later and emails and calls but no joy... and deadline tomorrow for priority marking. Has her place already at Uni on her achieved grades, so that's good but some advice over whether to do both paper 1 and/or paper 2 would have been beneficial..maybe I shouldn't worry about priority and take our time, that way if mark does go down she will already have started at Uni. What can they do... throw her out??
It would be highly unlikely to go down enough for her to lose her grade and teacher does not sound overly helpful tbh but you are right there is no rush as she has her place.I would get both remarked to find those extra marks .

Thank you , I thought I might do paper 1 first as that was her lowest mark and if that doesn't throw anything up do paper 2. If I do them both together one might go up 2 and the other might go down 2 cancelling each other out... good idea?

I've sent mine off. I just remember paper 3 going so well and then I ended up with 58. Paper 1 I thought wasn't too bad but I made so many mistakes due to not reading questions properly and got 70. I dont know, the marks don't seem to add up. I just need 1 mark so hopefully they can find something. Also, do you need the B for uni? If you need to, I would say go for it. I would doubt that you would fall into a D. I would say get one paper remarked and if it doesn't change, do another one.

Yes sounds like a plan but timing wise might have to do paper1 priority in order to get results back in time to decide about paper 2.

Also, for your peace of mind, you could get it remarked just so you don't regret not remarking later

Wait when I asked my school to send of remarks they just made me fill a sheet in and that’s it sent it off was I meant to pay or pick a paper Cus I didn’t

You might have had to pay unless the school agreed to cover the costs for you. Maybe ring them tomorrow and confirm that you want to send your paper off to remark and ask about the payment? Sorry, kind of misread the question 😅, yes, you also would have have had to pick a paper too. I suggest calling the school up tomorrow

The way a lot of remarks work you just get the scripts back first and that costs nothing.The school then can advise what or whether to ask for a remark on which papers.

I called the school today and the call says they are closed for the summer holidays ☠️
Do you need yours remarked urgently- as in do you need it done quickly for your uni place? If that's the case, I'm sure your school would be open for GCSE results day so I suggest giving them a ring then?

That's probably just a generic answer machine message. They will be open as office staff work through holidays. But maybe on flexi hours. Try sending an email to the school office , they will sure to be in as they have GCSe results on Thursday.
