so many people found bio hard but it went well for me and so did phy, chem was harder than i expected though. I really hope the grade boundaries are similar to how they were for unit 1 and 2 last summer, did great in those.

Yh, hoping for low grade boundaries in Biology! What Grades are you hoping for in science?

very weird :lol:

... I'm not :biggrin:

I need 76 UMS for an A* or 36 UMS for an A :lol:

Lucky you. I need like 95 UMS for an A* in biology, but then only like 68 UMS for an A* in Physics and 76 UMS for an A* in Chemistry.

I can't remember exactly, but I think I found the non-calculator paper easier- paper 1. How do you think you did? Are you aiming for an A**? :smile:

Hi guys, looks like im not the only nervous one :grin:

and to those of you who are expecting aqa triple science results, how did you guys do in the unit 3 exams?

I think all of them went pretty well. I think Physics was so easy, I couldn't believe it. But the other two were quite easy too, especially Chemistry were loads just tested you on memory but overall I'd give the unit 3's 7/10.
