If an A* in AQA Chemistry C2 or C3 is less than 50/60 I will be suprised and super happy you have no idea

I know they are so low! i thought i would get a B or something but so far its looking good!

I counted the max marks I could get realistically in the exam and got 58 so I was really scared bc the grade boundaries are normally like 60/80 for an A* on Unit 1 ahaha

I'm confused - the OCR has posted a PDF that supposedly holds both November 2013 and June 2014 grade boundaries, but people on here are saying they wouldn't release the boundaries until 6am? Does that mean that the boundaries displayed are what would have been for November 2013?

I think it's fine, the title change may mislead people to the purpose of this thread. If you just took the '1 hour' part out the title and thread wouldn't make sense.. if had it as just 'Edexcel Grade Boundaries' people might assume you're discussing them..

Yeah, I think I got around 51 or 52, so I might be able to snag that A*

According to their website, OCR isn't out until 6 AM on results day :/ but that's ok for me bc I only did geography on OCR and I care about that the least :smile:

My sleep pattern has been pretty messed up (from as early as 3am-8am :colondollar:

) I think I went to bed by 2am last night but didn't sleep 'til 5 :tongue:

I think tonight might be like that too :tongue:

I'm so happy that Geography B grade boundaries have been significantly obtainable. :P I feel a bit better.

An A* for "People and Planet" is only 52/78
An A* for "Dynamic Planet" is only 60/78

Me personally, I would like an A :smile:

So it's only like 45/78

Where is the link cant find it?

It's on the first page of this thread, from the OP. Then you have to use the drop down menus on the page to get to 2014, GCSE June, then Hospitality and Catering Unit 1/2/3/4. I did unit 2 and I'm so happy with the boundaries! Good luck

I got 2B 5C (B in Maths, C in English) at GCSE and now I'm off to Warwick this September to study Mathematics.

Don't worry too much about GCSEs, as cliche as it sounds, they don't matter all that much beyond C in Maths & English and unless you're applying for medicine. Employers will not use GCSEs to differentiate candidates, perhaps a-levels but moreso degree qualification is the best differential which most employers will use. So if you get ''average'' GCSEs like mine its not the end of the world, employers won't care, only medicine admissions tutors (I got an interview at Cambridge as well, and their feedback showed that there were reasons other than my GCSEs for rejection.)

I got A*A*A so don't listen to the people saying ''GCSEs represent your true ability'' because its a load of tosh

They are the UMS boundaries - they are the same every year (90% for an A*, 80% for an A etc.). It's the raw boundaries you'd be interested in. :smile:

I'm gone sleep less so I will be tired throughout day and can fall asleep easier for the big day
