Any predictions of grade boundaries out of 70 for an A?


I've always been told it's about 70% for an A, so guessing around the 50 marks out of 70.

Well I definitely know it's 80+ % for Bio and Chem, but I thought physics was lower as it's harder?

Anyway that's what I'm prayin' for :biggrin:

Well look at the grade boundaries for the past papers, they average out between the two papers to about 70% for an A and the boundaries won't be much different (if not lower) for the new spec.
Is AS grade important? I've been told that the only marks that are important are the one that im going to do in A2

Is there a list of equations that we should know how to derive for the exam?
if i completely mess up and come out with a bad grade at AS but then continue on to A2 will my AS grade have any effect on my A2 grade?

No, but if you get a bad grade I don't think you will be allowed to carry on forward/ why would you want to lol

Well my physics teacher doesn't give af who stays on so I can get a U and still continue, but I have to continue as I dropped bio too late into the year to switch to another subject, so I guess I will just have to try really hard next year.
Will there be an unofficial mark scheme released after the exam by someone like those arsey releases for maths???

why do you have to be in isolation?

Same, I got an A* last year without batting an eyelid, but this year I feel completely out of my depth.

Both exams are morning exams so I do one first than isolation than one in the afternoon
