I accidentally done a higher tier instead of foundation tier.

I done my edexcel biology exam today. When I saw my exam paper it says foundation tier. I thought I was meant to do a higher tier so i told one of the examiners that I had the wrong sheets. So she gave me a higher tier exam paper. When I got home I realised that I was meant to do foundation -_-. Am I in trouble?

The question is, do you think you did well on the higher? If so, I'd assume you're better off.

Nothing. , hope youve got a C in the paper:/
I dont think they'll register it because of all the names and numbers on the system. I mean your candidate number is probably registered for foundation. Ask your teacher tomorrow just to be safe

I once came out of an exam accidentally did the Alevel paper instead of the GCSE one. Its calm thought I got an A* and towards the end told the Examiner they told me its fine I gave it to them they sent it off and I managed to complete my GCSE this year got 100 percent. Its all good mate. I also go to both Cambridge and Oxford YK I'm your typical TSR Member.

This happened to a girl in my class today and my teacher said it should be fine but you may have to pay a minor fee as your name and candidate number was not entered for higher or something like that.

Probably not; I'm sure you'll be fine. If anything make your teacher contact the exam board so they can change your registration; hopefully you did well in the exam!
