The Specimen papers, remember, haven't been through any moderation and haven't even been sat officially as a paper. The mark scheme is also very strict (there would be a lot more 'allow' points in the actual exam). Our teachers said it isn't possible for it to be any harder, in other words they're the 'worst case scenario' papers.
We did the teachers only set as mocks bc the others got leaked (they told us what paper it was). Our teacher struggled with it, so if the real paper is anything like the specimens, rip guys
I think they'll be a lot lower... Yeah as the second set of specimen papers are a bitch paper 1 I think could be really hard. Then paper 2 I find easy. I assume depending on difficultly... 70-75% A then take 10% off for grades lower. I'm doing biology too and that's hard af... So I'm hoping all grade boundaries are really low. As it's the first year they've done it
