i’ve complained about this to literally everyone who will listen to me cus i could easily get an A with 2022 grade boundaries and even 2019 but with the 2023 ones i’ll be lucky to get a B so i don’t even want to know what i’ll get this year😭😭

i think they will, since 2018/19 grade boundaries that weren't affected by covid were still much lower than last years, so hoping last years was j an anomaly 😭😭

Guys anyone doing les mains sales or letranger? Also, for the essays, what would be your way to approach the question. Eg if it’s a to what extent… how would you plan out the essay.

i think if i were answering a ‘to what extent …’ question, i’d do like a for for against? like 2 ways it does show this, 1 way it doesn’t, or vice versa!
