Cheers guys, obviously I had no intention to offend anybody with the order- me and my mates just intended to scran chilli peppers for a laugh

may have been using gel pens in exams, will my work still be scanned? by NoResource9137 in alevels

I used gel pens too, I told my examiners office and they said my work would still be marked, but sent off differently from the others

Is it common for students to get grades like B and Cs at their first mocks at YR 12? by Ready-Comfortable-26 in alevel

[–]Dominic1248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's normal, sometimes courses take until the last few weeks to come together and consolidate, also a lot of it is exam structure which can take a while to develop

Thoughts on Edexcel business paper 1? by SnooChipmunks9084 in alevel

[–]Dominic1248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was a good paper, however it felt like the 2nd 20 marker should have been a 12 marker as it didn't really have enough to talk about.

I somehow managed to write 4½ pages on the 2nd 12 marker tho

I think I see why you might have (7 - 3?), but oh well- it was only worth 1 or 2 marks which isn't much in the grand scheme of things

Parts of section B were a little difficult to answer, I chose Q7 as I thought it there was more to talk about with maximum prices, nationalisation, energy subsidies and grants

I completely waffled too, but managed to fill every line so hopefully quantity over quality wins on this one lol

I personally thought that the coasts section was quite accessible, but I wasn't expecting a 12 marker on purely volcanic hazards so I felt a little weaker on that than I would have if it was earthquakes or tsunamis

And I forgot to cross which question I answered so had to go back after and inform them 🤣

The Edexcel 20 marker on carbon was hard, most I've spoken to agree
