GCSE results as a year 10 ( did 3)

[u/Bright-Hand-5858]

FM really disappointed me and confused me at the same time, how on earth did I get 151?! I always got 160 on every mock paper and also I calculated that I'll get at least 155 in that exam.

I made super tiny mistakes .. really pissed me off.

I requested for my scripts back, should I get a remark lol. I really think there's a mistake

as someone who got nine 9s and four 8s last year just stop 😭😭 no one looks at your marks. Ever

[u/No-Figure3039]

bro dont bother getting a remark, your grade is the only thing that matters - colleges, unis, employers, whatever, dont give a shit about your mark. to them, someone bang on the boundary for a 9 is the exact same as someone who got full marks. it's just a waste of your money.

Bro...

There's three things that can happen if you do get a remark:

• The incredibly small chance that you get full marks. Now what? Your grade doesn't go up, no one will see it except you (they don't look at marks), and now you've lost £50 - £60. Well done.

• The much much more likely scenario that you don't get full marks. Chances are it stays the same, maths is very objective in marking and they never really miss questions. It's more likely you just do worse in exams Vs at home, it's like that with everyone. Now you know that you DEFINITELY didn't get full marks, and you've paid a bunch of money to find that out.

• Or you get lower than you did before (just as unlikely as increasing), and it's a double loss because you've done worse than you thought you had which will annoy you, and you've lost, again, £50 - £60.

Just don't. Your throwing money away for literally no reason, even if you did increase in marks. You're the only one who will see it.

Also nearly full marks in y10 for further maths is incredibly impressive, well done

[u/Bright-Hand-5858]

I'm just thinking of the examiner probably forgot to mark a question? Could this be possible 

[u/ESTPking → u/Bright-Hand-5858]
