lol
agreed, aqas exams have all been absurd
I actually don’t know what to feel honestly I left the exam hall feeling ok about jt until I saw people crying and now I’m overthinking it when I should be revising physics 😭 also, how much did u guys write I did about two sides each and didn’t even write a conclusion which apparenlty u are supposed to do? Man I’m really sad rn

Well that’s just ur work ethic. U don’t revise Banquo and u don’t revise poems. Don’t blame AQA


where did poems come from

literally wailed after that exam gnkjdgsjkndjsk

wbu how did you find it?

luckily the rest of my exams before the half term are WJEC and Edexcel (who haven't been much better)

recycling specimen paper questions and decreasing the mark value is something that springs to mind

i w a f f l e d
i just want low ass grade boundaries tbh


sammeee, I went in looking to fail I stg, but it came out pretty well, I don't know how ACC linked with any themes or Macbeth for that matter,but obviously momma had to make it work!

I only revised the supernatural and banquo; I took a wild guess ngl

personally found aqa exams the hardest as they were quite bs
ocr exams were much better, only do edexcel in maths so havent done that yet

Edexcel maths will be problem solving heavy I think (those 3 paragraph long stories about how Molly wants to buy some tea leaves for a barbecue)

OCR i would have imagined to be much harder!!

i dunno how I wrote 4 pages, in my previous mock i scored 3/30 for ACC because I didn't get it and I left it basically blank lmao, but I revised the Ghosts a bit and I was like; "what is scrooge really scared of sharon (my name)" and I thought he's a afraid of being poor! that's why he's so tight fisted! and he's afraid of being loved because he's being 'solely' alone for the majority of his life apart from fans love and that's why he pushes fred away! I forgot to write about belle,but and english teacher said that explanation I gave was spot on. I AM PLEASED I WENT IN THERE THINKING JUST FAIL ACC AND COME HOME LAMO
