So the general strike hasnt been done in a while . When do exams boards create the exam papers because with Thatchers death maybe general or miners strike might appear. Hopefully grade boundaries are slightly lower this year.

that is possible because 54 out of 80 is a C... but what was your practical grade. how was the 6 mark questions for you, those were good questions

multiple choice and 6 markers seemed to go well. however, the main section went poorly. i was on 106/120 in the practical going into the exam.

That's good, true the 6 markers and the multiple questions were good, I had 90 % which was an A* for my practical, 108/120. so are you sure that a C in the exam would give you an A overall?

Yep cos you need 160/200 overal for an A. But I Don't know the conversion between raw marks and ums.
