idk if it is different for Cambridge but with all other exam boards a 'review of marking' basically means remarking the paper. Hence the mark can change to be higher or lower.
OCR definitely put them down, I have known a remark to go from a C to a D!
Maybe worth a try for me then anyway. Especially in maths
Congratulations! If I may ask, what are your UMS for Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Physics?
Actually CIE uses what they call Percentage Uniform Mark, but it's basically the same as the UMS. But in PUM I got - Maths: 91%, Chemistry: 91%, Biology: 90% and Physics: 94%, so I was very close to an A in a lot of them
Amazing results nonetheless! 6A*s are a wonderful achievement!
Thank you!! Yes, I'm very pleased with my results especially since my school is generally underperforming in IGCSE You did really well too! Congratulations!!

Thank you! I also had a close call with double science (91) and English language (90, lol). Are you remarking PE, or any other paper? I'm remarking one exam because it's one percent off of an A :P

I don't think I'll remark PE, no.. I don't particularly want to go through the hassle just so I get my grade increased to a C. I don't know whether that D might hold me back when it comes to applying to Oxbridge which is what I'm aiming for though. What do you think?

I don't think it's worth remarking P.E, it won't hold you back, don't worry about it

Don't quote me on this, but my teacher told me they look at your best 8 results mostly. They can, however, be kinda weirded out about the D since your others results are great. Personally I'd probably retake it or remark it to at least a passing grade, but that's just me. I think your results are great nonetheless and you shouldn't worry toooo much when you apply Ps. Guess it's two of us for Oxbridge then :P
If you are applying for Oxford they only take 8 A*s + for interviews most of the time. Cambridge look at your AS Level UMS. You need above 90 in all the subjects you do. Personally I'm a Cambridge Fan. Trinity College here I come.

GCSEs are important but they're not a deal breaker. I want to apply for medicine so with 7 A*s I'm a bit under the median, but I had a friend who got in with 2A*s only for archeology
