There was this page, I think it was on tsr, which specifically stated the grade boundaries for the exam now I can't find it for some reason. According to my teacher students sitting the exam from 2017 onwards will not have the formula sheet either...

That page was predicting the boundaries... they don't come out until 20th August- OH MY GOD glad that is not me :wink:

Thank God! I was so scared, I seriously done really crappily on the test, plus the added fear of the boundaries had me planning my run-away route. Also my stupid family has this legacy of being good at math and my mum literally threatened to disown me if I got anything less than an A*.

Do not worry, I am pretty sure it will not go higher than 165 for an A* out of 200.

We had one exam on A View from the bridge, Of Mice and Men, Jekyll and Hyde and then I did my poem on Death of a naturalist by Seamus Heaney.

But the end questions on the second paper were SO good. I was scared that they were going to give us transformation of functions so I was really happy with the trig questions.

Oh my gosh I know, for the last like how many years it was all transformations and I still can't do them completely to this day, it was a lifesaver.

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*.

140 for an A?

I'm absolutely **** at simultaneous equations- not the higher ones that turn in to quaratics but the easier ones, I pretty sure I failed those questions.

I'm just hoping for the best because I thought the mock I did a few weeks before was really hard and I got 186 so I'm just hoping I did good in this one too.

I don't actually know, I read this thread where this guy claimed to have them. I've been told that they're the predicted grade boundaries.
