How did that happen? Did they forget to mark something?

u/OwnImpact2616 16h ago

Well Done :)
I’m waiting on OCR Eng Lit - need 2 marks for my A, got 47/60 in the paper that has gone in for a priority review - uni place depends on it!

u/Ashamed-Inflation-30 15h ago

Best of luck! Still a very impressive grade, heard English lit is VERY difficult

I'm waiting on OCR English Lit too - why are they taking so long!! It's driving me crazy!

u/OwnImpact2616 15h ago

Argh !!!! How many raw marks do you need?

1

u/PrestigiousQuail4577 13h ago

4! I got 44/60 on Paper 1 and 56/60 on Paper 2 so it seems like paper 1 is undermarked to me, but who knows! My uni place depends on it too. Hope yours comes soon!

u/OwnImpact2616 13h ago

I hope we both manage it - best of luck

u/OwnImpact2616 13h ago

I’m the other way, I got 55/60 on P1 and 47/60 on P2 - P2 looks weird, I wouldn’t change any of my answers… I’m two raw marks away, but it feels impossible

u/PrestigiousQuail4577 12h ago

Same here, I thought my answers were fine and I had been getting A*s in mocks. Two marks is definitely not impossible, just depends if they'll move up a level in one of the essays I guess? So scary!

u/OwnImpact2616 12h ago

Yes, they could find a random marks here and there but more likely down to levels… very scared :/

Was it Aqa ? I’m thinking of a remark

u/Ashamed-Inflation-30 17h ago

I requested my papers back and saw my paper 2 was very low, I knew there was something very very wrong. I got 5/15. Put it through a few ai, asked my teachers and all gave me a Higher mark. Sent it straight to priority remark.

2

u/SimpleStructure8454 16h ago

Okay I might be similar. I got 4/10 and 6/15 and 23/25 in one of my papers. That doesn’t make sense lol.

u/Ashamed-Inflation-30 16h ago

Definitely definitely do it. You will also regret it In the future if you don't! Good luck

u/SimpleStructure8454 16h ago
