Year 11 mock

Hello, I just completed my year 11 mocks. We did our physics one today, which was the 2024 past paper. We had to go to biology after, and my friend found the mark scheme after so we were looking at it (everyone was but hiding it) but my teacher caught me and my friend looking at it and asked if we looked at it before the test and obviously we said no because we hadn’t but I don’t think she believed us. I’ve counted how many marks I got and I think I got a 6-6 or maybe a 7-6, but in my year 10 mocks I got an 4-4.

Do you think she will think I cheated? I’m super worried because I didn’t I just revised a lot over the summer and the past couple of weeks!

Thanks

It only matters that you know considering this is a mock. If that makes sense.
Obviously they will conduct an investigation but it's a given that some students may have seen the mark scheme beforehand whether through friends in previous schools, online or past students who sat the exam but in the end the teachers are already aware of your level and have a vague idea of what they'd get. For example if a failing student suddenly got 100%, it'd be clear to see cheating.
If the teachers still say you cheated either
A. They don't like you or have high hopes for you
B. Revision has really paid off
C. They're not a good teacher and don't know your actual level
I'd say don't worry too much because it's a mock but...covid so... It's safe to say you're okay. 👍
