I understand that they need the standardisation process, but if they need to move people down (say 100 for example) If they then moved 20 up, they'd have to move 120 down whereas I think it would be fairer to move none up and only 100 down

I received mine today, thanks for the wishes.
I got a 7 in eng lit, eng lang and history which isn't the best (personally) but i know they were my worst subjects. Good luck for the 14th!

I got grade 7 twice in GCSE maths in Y11 and a 8 in year 10, doubt I get it cause the school I go to. I most likely to get a 5 or 6. I hate the fact I can’t accept it but I know it’s going to happen and I’m not gonna be surprised.

That’s unlikely to happen
because the percentage of all grades will go up by 1-2% each centre (school) will do better than they did last year

so expect some 9s

that also depends on how strict or lenient your teachers were

if your teachers were too strict worrying about how the standardisation process will work the grades will be pushed up

if they based their predictions from last year, so for example they gave 15 grade 9s compared to 13 last year, the exam board may not change the grades because each school is going to do better than last year

there’s gonna be some sort of drastic change because they were too lenient

I still want good grades, but like I'm not bothered about resitting exams to make them better. I just want to get my results and move on as well. Feel like this is all a bad dream.

Fr. You can tell that the govt doesn't want people to appeal as much, cause everyone's forgotten content, the exams are in November (I think) and results day #2 would be in January. What a long wait.

It's still mindblowing how this school year has gone down. I remember at the start of year 11 we were saying, "this is gonna be an interesting year" due to the stress, but little did we know...
