I'm predicted 9 A*s and 2 As... I might drop one of the As for a B in Spanish because the listening was difficult. But I think I got the rest fine.

Harder than June 2013 for sure! But, that is my own opinion. Did you do the same exam? Hoping the boundaries are lower than last year

Yes I did it, I'm so thankful that someone found it to be hard other than me. The question where you had to convert miles in to km left me so angry and frustrated. The grade boundaries are high this year: 140 for an A apparently and I can't remember the mark needed for an A*.

My entire class hated that question, we were never really taught it and it was as if we were 'expected' to know! I knew that it was 1.6, but I felt as if it was a stupid question to put into the exam

I found USA 1929-2000 the easiest. I was able to memorise the whole essay for the 10 marker. But made stupid mistakes like forgetting what the NAACP is even tho I revised that so much. Early USA and Germany were both alright. I hope to get a B but wouldn't mind getting a C tbh History is not one of my best subjects. Hope you get your A*

Nobody knows the grade boundaries yet! Many do reckon it will be lower than last year- OMG that miles-km question really frustrated me (they gave you the conversion in a previous paper)
