And OCR, no?

Here is OCR, I think.

How did you find the exams?

I did Paper 2 last year on the liberal reforms (definitely the hardest of the 3 choices imo, for me anyway) and thought it went meh, but ended up with full marks so that must have gone well haha. I'm not sure about Paper 1, but with 48/50 on my CA I worked out I needed the bare minimum for an A to get an A* overall and think (hope!!) I have done enough for that. How did you find them? :smile:

I'm awaiting the AQA Certificate boundaries to see whether everyone else messed up as badly as I did in Triple Science...

If those grade boundaries aren't low, I'm going to be SO annoyed! My school basically told us the whole time that they had no idea what the exams would be like but that the grade boundaries would be low so we'd do fine. :s-smilie:

These appear to just show the UMS required for each grade, without the raw mark equivalents.

They're just UMS marks they never change, they arent the raw mark grade boundaries :smile:

It was Liberal Reforms AGAIN this year and I was so upset because even though I revised all three topics in depth Liberal Reforms was my least favourite and I just hated the paper :frown:

Paper 1 was okay, we'd been through some of the cartoons that came up in class :lol:

We haven't been told our coursework marks due to moderation paranoia :s-smilie:

Ooops, that is all I could find. They must not be posting the whole thing until later or something. Sorry.

I failed them so badly...we were told the Paper 2s would be like the old ISA papers! :mad:

I actually thought they were better than I'd expected them to be but Chem Paper 2 was awful! My school had no idea what the Paper 2s would be like. My Bio, Chem and Physics teachers all said different things so I didn't know whether to revise just experiments or the entire course. :s-smilie:

I don't know the structure of yours but I can understand why you'd want them to be like the old ISAs :lol:

And it's nearly midnight best start moving over to grade boundary thread :ahee:
