Should I get some of my GCSEs remarked?
So today I got my GCSEs and am very close to the grade boundaries in multiple subjects. These are:
Business (edexcel)
I got: Grade 8, 146
Grade 9 is 147
English literature (edexcel)
I got: Grade 8, 132
Grade 9 is 133
Geography (AQA)
I got: Grade 8, 201
Grade 9 is 202
Chemistry (AQA)
I got: Grade 8, 148
Grade 9 is 149
I don't see any point in remarking chemistry as I don't think the mark schemes are subjective enough to gain marks however with the other 3 subjects I'm not sure.
Please can anyone give some insight or advice?

Definitely go for it! Essay subjects you are quite likely to get a mark or two more and I’m sure that they might find a method mark for chemistry somewhere with a calculation or something! Amazing results either way x

The first 3 absolutely. But for chemistry get your scripts back first and see if there’s anywhere you think you deserved a mark.
