Hiya Guys!
Today I had AQA Business studies and myself and other class mates found it really difficult!
Just wondering if that was the general view or whether it was just us.
Cheers :smile:


I thought it was a breeze. I was nearly laughing.

I've never seen so many 4 markers before? I prefer that to having fewer questions but more 6 and 8 markers though.


Edexcel Psychology? I didn't like the Gottesmann and Shields evaluation question :redface:

Quite well, I think. People are saying it was hard but I thought it fine really. Hopefully I won't be getting any nasty surprises on results day :tongue:
Why do you say it was strange?

I'm sure since you found it well, you'll have done well :smile:
It's just that it wasn't exactly a normal paper, it was different. Like everyone's been saying it was more difficult than usual.

That's what I'm hoping :smile:
Oh... but you still think you might get an A though? That's good :smile: (and the grade boundaries may be a little lower than usual?)

Hopefully I can get an A although I'm worried I might not though :redface:
Yeah, I guess its good news since the grade boundaries will be lower than usual :smile:

Stay positive though, by the sound of it it could've gone much worse for you... plus there's the boundaries thing :smile:

I did questions 1 and 3 which were both topics I knew pretty well :smile: Yeah the 24 markers were really vague! :redface: Luckily when I checked with my friend afterwards, it turned out I'd wrote the right thing :') I was hoping for dates in the questions but they didn't put them in :/

I wish i'd chosen question 1! I didnt really feel like i had enough to gain good marks whilst i was writing them. I wish the 24 marker on question 3 was about the October revolution instead it would have been great! hopefully Wednesdays history exam will be better :biggrin:

Awh I sure you did fine :biggrin:
I didn't really mind it but yeah October Revolution would have been fun to write about! :smile:
Yeah! I'm hoping collectivisation does not come up...hate that topic
I want the power struggle, industrialisation and the terror to come up...that would just be amazing! :biggrin:
