English Lang AQA Remark

Hi Advice needed please.

I am considering getting my English language GCSE remarked as I got a 4 and was 1 mark off a 5.

Paper 1- 45 out of 80
Paper 2- 34 out of 80

Total 79, needed a 70 for a 3. Needs 80 for a 4. 1 mark off.

Should I have both papers remarked or just one as I am worried about dropping 9 marks and having a 3.

Many thanks

hey, I am also getting mine remarked, im also 9 marks off the lower grade boundary, but I went for it anyway!! I feel like it would be very unlikely that you would drop so many marks, as that would mean the marker completely messed it up haha, so I highly doubt it would go down, and if it did, I really don't think it would be nine marks? but I know what your thinking as dropping to a 3 would be very annoying. I don't have much experience with remarks, but I say go for it!
