I think Edexcel screwed up a lot

Is it edexcel geog? And which unit?

Keep me posted on outcome please!

Has anyone received non-priority A Level re-marks results? If so, how long did it take and which exam board?

Everyone is getting their remarks back but I thought it took 30 days

Up to 30 days. The quickest I've ever seen was about 90 minutes and it was successful.

Would you have any idea on how long CIE non-priority would take?

At the end of year 11 I got a C in IGCSE English Language. I felt outraged because my teachers had confidently predicted me an A*. Got the paper remarked. Grade didn't change. I even asked for a photocopy of the exam sheet and could see clearly my mistakes. The exam board hadn't done anything wrong; I just messed up.

I haven't been entirely happy with some of the results I've received, but rather than blaming the exam board I blame myself, which motivates me to improve. You won't gain anything by pinning your misfortunes on people you've never even met; if you can't accept responsibility for your failures, you're not going to get very far in life, and you certainly won't be able to prevent yourself from projecting an image of laziness and entitlement.

At the end of year 11, I also got a C in English Language. I also felt outraged, and got the script back. The examiner had marked incorrectly, and my paper was marked up to a high A.
Your situation can't be applied to every single A-level student. Because sometimes, the marking is unfair. If twice as many papers are being marked in the same period of time, it would be logical to assume that twice as many papers are marked incorrectly (or more).
ALSO, for STEM subjects, if you know the answer in the exam, it's pretty easy to deduce the mark you got. If you don't get similar to this mark, it'd be perfectly reasonable to get it remarked, as there is a chance that it's down to the examiner.

My History came back exactly the same mark.

Having submitted it on Friday afternoon, and receiving the result on Tuesday early morning, they have marked, processed and checked an essay-subject exam in less than 24 hours.

My school is appealing!

I had the same problem with M1... I got nearly all 100 in mocks and even if not 100 it's a 97 or something... Got 89 in this summer's exam only and this happened to a lot of my friends as well, they are supposed to get around 95 and the all ended up around 85. And for a girl who is not good at Mechanics at all and got 85 or so in mocks... She got a 99? I doubt if there is a problem in the mark scheme.

Just got a remark for an Edexcel GCE RS module from 53/100 (D) to 90/100 (A), and overall from a C to an A. So happy!! So I think a remark is worth it if you think they might've undermarked you.

If I was to request a non-priority AS Level Remark on Tuesday 26th August -> When should I expect to hear from the exam board @EDEXCEL


^ What is the average time from hearing back from exam boards - x Days? The subject remarks are for History, Maths & Physics.

I think Edexcel made a mistake while issuing my result (if that's possible) because there's no way that I would actually get U in unit 1 and 2 of Biology as most of answers are exactly the same as in the Mark Scheme . Now I'm thinking to use one of their services , But I'm not sure which one should I use , Clerical check , ATS copy or should I go for remarking straight away , Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated
