Art GCSE grades

Hi girlies if u did art GCSE like last year or something could you please tell me if ur actual mark was better than ur raw mark ? Because my raw mark would’ve barely scraped a 7 with last years grade boundaries and I will literally explode if I get below an 8

heyy I did GCSE art (aqa) last year and my raw mark was slightly higher than my actual mark- the external peeps took it down by 3/4 marks. It didn’t actually affect my grade though. I think it depends because apparently they are always harsh on the school I go to because they think we get too many good grades so they need to lower them a bit??! idk but good luck!!
