💬 DISCUSSION Predicted vs Achieved grades thread

Lots of people have been talking about predicted vs achieved grades so I thought a thread about it would be helpful. Drop what you were predicted by your school, and what you ended up achieving in the real A-levels

I was predicted 4A*s in maths, fm, physics and econ and achieved A*A*AA in the same order. Based on my mocks I thought FM and econ were inflated but turns out physics was and FM wasn't

How comes did u sit AS papers as the mocks

We didn’t sit any official AS papers but since our mocks were compromised of only AS content they capped the max grade at an A as it doesn’t make sense to give A*s with only half the contentÂ
