Everyone who's done the BPHO Intermediate in 2025.. how did you find it?

Did you find it easy? What do you think gold is? I'm a first timer so I'm kinda hyper because I wanna know how other people found it.
Apparently, some old posts said we aren't allowed to talk explicitly about questions?

Managed to finish the paper with barely 9 mins left, wasn't as bad as some of the past papers I think

The "which change increases power output of turbine" one, for some reason I always mess up that type of questions in past papers

Had a look at my script, the hardest part was apparently reading numbers off a calculator correctly

Any idea with grade boundaries

according to last years posts and this years' general difficulty, it seems it will be around 25+ for a gold, 18+ for a silver and 10+ for bronze. don't quote me on this

My teacher mentioned that for some reason they haven’t emailed out boundaries this year so he had to manually check on the website, that might be why

26 marks or above was a gold this year

My teacher told me. I believe only teachers can access it, given it is not prominently featured on the website.

Gold 26-50
Silver 19-25
Bronze 1 13-18
Bronze 2 5-12
Commendation 0-4
