yes

 

[Mr.Physics]

But in my Urdu Mujib ur Rehman book it is written that you should write in 3 -4 paragraphs !!

 

[Khawaja Shoaib]

no yar i've heard in these subjects a boundary is set according to the one who has got highest marks.. for example if someone has taken 72 which are highest then boundary for A* will be set from 64 to 72............................................................................................????? am I correct??
& if I am then can u plz tell me that how much is that boundary normally???

 

[M Hamza Sajjad]

Yes i had explained both very well but just missed a point that i mentioned above.. other than that, my paper went awesome.. i m just worried about this question that how much marks they do deduct for just one reason? there were other reasons which i have mentioned but just one i forgot to write. i hope they grant some concessions to me nd give me 12-13 marks so I could get an A*

There is no negative marking or deducting in CIE... it depends on the quality of your answer... hope that u get good marks anyhow.

The grade thresholds or boundaries change every year... they depend on many factors like the difficulty of the paper compared to previous years papers, the percentile system etc.
No I think what u are saying is wrong... according to what I have heard, there are two possible ways:
1. The one who scores highest e.g 72, then those marks will be considered 100%, and the rest will be calculated out of that much e.g u got 64, so it will be calculated 64/72.
2. The marks are graded according to a percentile system... your marks are compared to others who did the exams, like if your marks are better than 85% of the candidates, you will get 85%; I think it's like it.
Personally, I think the second one is more convincing.

AOA!
I am not taking the Urdu paper right now, but I think it's neater to make more than one paragraphs... gives a good impression... just my two cents.

no...even the words limiit is too short u have to write it in atleast 2-3 short paragraphs(the last paragraph should include conclusions)
