Comparing the module 5 exam from last year, I find that this years module 5 was a wee bit more difficult than last years. Last year it was 98 for an A* so I think it would either be around that or just below


Yeah the questions were so obscure compared to other years. Well even if the boundaries stay the same they shouldn't be any higher...hopefully lol

Does anyone remember the percentage they got from one of the very first questions following the multiple choice?


I can remember writing 76% for something but not sure of the question...there was a yield question straight after but I think it was asking mass

Yeah I had loads of time left. Kept checking to make sure I hadn't missed pages. I've only heard one person complaining about it, most others seemed to think it was fine.

Yeah exactly, it would roughly be around 98 but it would, of course, be better if it was lowered. We will see in August. Just a wee note, I heard that the second best school in my area (Rathmore Grammar School, Belfast) thought the exam was pretty difficult with the wording in some places. The point I am making is that you shouldn't worry too much if you didn't too well
