The Super Juicy CURRENT YEAR 11 (2012-13) THREAD Mark V

Yeah, the only thing is the content really. I know that maths IGCSE is more difficult than GCSE, because there's more content and way higher grade boundaries - the raw marks required for an A* for the exam I did, for instance, was 188/200. This probably due to the fact that it's mostly asians doing the paper, which I know is a stereotype, but it is one that generally holds for (I)GCSE and A-level maths where hard work alone can get you very far regardless of aptitude.

However, I'm not too sure if we covered more content for other subjects compared to GCSE.

Best. Story. Ever.

I thought IGCSE grade boundaries were low - 45%ish is a B 65%ish is an B

That's low, no? In the jan paper if you got 5% you got an E

(Higher Tier)

Oh myy... I think the D grade one is better than the A grade. :'( That's so sad for the person! :/

And omg Fish! The irony! We were told to be outside at 1 for our class pictures. -_- We didn't even get any notice and i looked so pooey.

Well that's fair enough. If you do iGCSE history vs GCSE history what's the difference? apart from no controlled assessments?

Sarcasm?

I didn't do History, so I wouldn't know.

No I'm serious. These are not the pregnancy hormones talking. Its brilliant.

Is it wrong that laughed when people got Cs in the geography controlled assessment when they were expecting better results?

Only you would.... -_-

Clear that head of yours!

(rhetorical)
