Cambridge needs to receive the top papers from each centre by this Thursday I think.

But results and grade boundaries will be published 29th!

do you think 51 is enough for roenteginuium in the past it has been but i fear this paper was much easier than previous years; very little maths :frown:


Yes, very much so. Maths makes it easier for people good at maths, of which there are probably more compared to those good at chemistry.

No idea, have you got your score back?
My paper (35) has been sent off to Cambridge, is it possible that it could go down at all? Also, what do you guys think the gold boundary will be?

That's very likely to be a gold. It won't go down if your teachers have marked it properly.

I hope he has then, just sceptical because whilst I'm good at chemistry I'm not that good and after that paper I'm surprised that I got 35, which was second in my school out of 13. Let's hope it stays as is

oh come on, that's obviously a gold. Just look at the boundaries for past papers, the highest one for gold was 31-ish. :wink:


It's a silver in 2011, I didn't do any past papers for this, anyone know if this paper was harder than usual or easier or whatever?

that was before a lot of schools entered so colleges only entered there best students, getting gold is easier now.
Very happy with my mark, 32, only expected about ten based in previous papers, do you think 32 would be a gold????

Gold!
Always believe in your soul...
Got the Roentgenium Award! though I'm unable to go to the camp, as I booked a holiday as I really didn't expect this, would it be seen as disrespectful to turn down the invitation?
