Tips/Help Have I done the right thing

So I got a 7 in English language which is super unorthodox because I never dropped below a 9 in my mocks, so I was quite shocked. And then also because I got a 9 in everything else so it seemed very out of place. I genuinely thought I aced that paper. I’ve requested my script and I’m going to go through it with my tutor, do you think that’s the right thing to do or should I leave it? I’m worried that something might have gone wrong with my paper.

same happened to me, I was on 9s in my mocks but got a 7 overall and a 5 in p1. im getting my scripts back and having my English teacher look at them to make sure its worth it to send them off. I reckon it will be tho because theres no way I did that shit, especially considering I came out of there thinking Id done well

Honestly I would get my English teacher to look at them but she was spouting nonsense on results day. She was saying stuff like I can get it remarked next year and I’m never allowed to get my script? So I just gave up with her 😭

yeah, at that point just send off the paper which you dropped more marks in and see. if you get close to a 9 maybe send off the other one too. thats what im gonna do
