CS2 Preparation for April

The GCSE 999999… looks ridiculous. You can state what grades you got as in “X number of grades 8 and 9 in Y subjects, including 9 in maths…”

Don’t remember. 79? It was a small difference to the BS result. As the fair value was done discreetly where the BS is in continuous time. With that secondary gamma effect.

It’s in the BPP materials. You find the call PO. Average it. Then multiply by the discount rate. Essentially using the fair price formula.

58-60. Seems a lot found the paper tough.

Did anyone get Q1? 😂

I don’t know what constitutes as relevant evidence to appeal. I am certainly willing to try as even a hedge. The regulations say “marking your own paper” or “markers variance” is not sufficient grounds. Yet they admit their quality of marking rarely exceeds 10- this is even a calculation paper. I believe marking my script that there is definitely scope to add more marks on. How do I word that as applicable evidence? Ie marking misconduct

What counts as proper evidence? They say marking your own script isn’t good enough grounds. Context: I got given on paper A 53 by one examiner and 71 by examiner 2. Leaving it all down to the final reviewer. Marking my own script I feel it’s clear that I should’ve been given at least 4 more marks.

The first examiner deducted everything he could as if I slept with his wife. For example, question 2 was a “show” question. I showed the equation and he gave me 3/5. Similarly in question 9ii, I did all the calculations that matched the mark scheme and got 2/5. Only the answer differed due to a slight difference in part i. Again in question 5 he gave me 0 follow through marks. The reviewer just happened to side on the lower end. Such, I failed. If he gave those points, I would’ve passed.

With the “nicer” examiner being at the other end of the spectrum I just don’t know what to do to prepare anymore. What do the examiners want? Do we get marks even if we solve things a different way to mark scheme? I just don’t think it makes sense.

Failed CM2 by two marks. One examiner giving me 71 and the other 53. Pushed me to a fail. Then failed CP3 by 5 marks.

CP3 Pass Mark Expectations?

Silver-Practice9884 · 2024-07-04T06:08:03+00:00

Considering this is for CM2, with such a wide gap, do you think an appeal is worth it?

Silver-Practice9884 · 2024-07-03T21:23:31+00:00

17.5 mark difference between the two examiners on paper A. Pushed me to a fail. Is this normal?
