How did everyone do in mocks and do you think they’ll be important?

This is such a horrible situation for us year 13, like who puts their whole effort in mock exams we all leave it for the real main thing

I know, it’s hideous. I’m glad that I didn’t do too badly in my mocks, but know I could have done better. I’m glad that they are using previous class work too though as I believe that sometimes exam conditions don’t let us shine and show our true talents

I think mocks will probably be important, but it depends if every college or sixth form actually did them. I did mine in December and got all Bs thankfully. But I do think that they should definitely take other things into account equally such as progress since mocks.

I think you would most likely get BBC, possibly even As. Think positively 😊

That would be alright. Do you think mocks will be the most important variable?

I think they mostly might be as it’s a reflection of exam conditions, but other class test will probably be important

Further maths - A*
Chemistry - A*

Grades most likely to get
Further Maths - A

I have an A* in maths from last year, but I did loads of work before the exam for my other subjects, and I thought I could get away with that again.

I'm an international student doing Edexcel IAL. I already did my AS last year and even though i did well in my mocks this year for IA2 my school said that im most likely going to get what i got in my AS grade since that is what happens 90% of the time.

I'm doing Accounting, Mathematics and Further Mathematics and got
Accounting - B (238/300 UMS)
Mathematics - A (267/300 UMS)
Further Mathematics - B (227/300 UMS)

so my results are most likely to be ABB which im really mad about because i worked my ass off this year so i can try to get AAA but i guess it was all to waste ://

same, I literally left out questions in the mock exam because I couldn't be bothered. Always done way better in the real exam

This situation we are in is actually sad on an academic microcosm in comparison to the whole Corona virus pandemic but I feel like something else should have been done for us, this is not fair at all!!

Grades I would like:

Religious Studies - A
Law - B
Sociology - C

Grades I will most likely get:

Religious Studies - B
Law - C
Sociology - C/D (depends on how standardisation goes rlly)

I took mocks quite seriously as i was low-key freaking out about doing the real exams but I never really grasped the exam structure in sociology so while I knew a fair bit about it, one of my teachers would always give me Ds and Cs in mocks and assessments as I wasn’t “answering the question”. I would always get Cs from my other teacher who focuses on family and media so I don’t know how they’ll average out.

I was quite consistently getting Cs in law and before exams were cancelled, he said I was on track to getting a High C/Low B in the real exams.

Religious studies was my favourite subject and our teachers were top notch. I was getting Bs and As in the ethics side of the course and started reaching those grades in philosophy at the end of year 12. In my last set of mocks, I was really close to getting an A on all except the New Testament paper and in our last ethics essay, I got an A so I’m hoping to get an A overall.

Also, I just found out my sixth form isn’t letting us go into school on results day. Instead, they’ll be emailing them over to us between 8am and 9am. I’m quite gutted tbh.
