3 marks under grade 4 in both GCSE English papers. Is it worth paying for a remark?

The average change in marks up or down after a remark for English Lit/Lang is around 0.5-1 mark. So increasing by 3 marks is unlikely.

Is there an option for you to request the papers and have a teacher mark them before deciding to pay for a remark?

Thank you so much. I've requested his scripts from the exam officer at school. #clutchingatstraws!

Did teacher recall script which is free? I was two marks under and teacher said she couldn't find 2 marks so not worth review.

You have to sign that you agree to viewing script so contact your teacher.
