Welsh Exam board for Geogrpahy GCSE

[Madox]

Ok, i go and pick up my GCSE results, and i look at my geogprahy and it say a BIG Fat D. im pridicted an A in geoprahy and my coursework was at an A which is worth 25%, ironicly the same people in my class got the same amount of points and same grade as i did which was 6 of us, just wondering has this happend in any other school? and the teacher said there going to look at the brakedown just wondering has this happend elsewhere?

just because you got an A in coursework the other parts of the course you might have got say an E or F to bring that A down, because the coursework is only 25% after all

if not, i'm sure you can sent it back to be remaraked. you will have to contact your school about that

Fair point but isnt it quiet fishy that 5 A grade students go the same mark? and same amount of points?

Points are the same for each grade I believe. For example if you got 46 points for a B, so will everyone else who gets a B. 'tis points not marks

I had an E in Geography with welsh board

Others performed better in the exam. Perhaps you weren't taught proper exam technique. Coursework is never the best indicator for a final grade anyway, since you have numerous attempts to get it right, and nigh on unlimited time

fair enough but i cant wait what they have to say about it, no matter how much its costs to re mark it its getten remarked, i wont be statisfied until i get my pass in that subject it is a real p take

a pass is anything which is above an F, so it is technically a pass. but i understand wanting to get above a C

dont see anything less than a C as a pass to be honest espically if your pridicited an A
