I was just wondering how many of you are resitting this coming session,i also heard that CIE's marking was really strict and many of us didn't get our expected results. :eek:
What subjects will you be resitting,and how are you going to prepare for them?
I'll be resitting math,chem and physics
anyway,Good luck to all those resitting :)

I will be resitting my AS Bio & Chem :/
This is not right, my papers were so good! They've really done something wrong with our papers this time..
But inshA'Allah we'll get good grades in the Oct/Nov session! Good luck to you :)

Oh & what did you get? I got 2Ds & an E :/ Was expecting an A for Bio, got a D :|
What is your study routine?

I think they checked it really harshly,because the Grade thresholds are not that high and according to the GT a 70% is an A and i'm sure i could have atleast gotten that much :(
I got 3B's in math physics and Chem and one A in bs.st
I'm resitting all the B's
For studying,i'm just going over the syllabus and i'll probably start solving pastpapers from the begining of sept,I have no idea where i went wrong,i did so many papers and could easily get an A on most of them :/

hoenstly,i have no idea what's up with CIE,whenever i did past papers at home i could easily get an A,and looking at our may/june paper and markscheme,i'm pretty sure i couldn't have lost so many marks to get a B

I'm doing Biology again . I'm very shocked guys, i really did well in the exam and i got a D !!!! i started studying again but it's like i know almost everything and i have no idea how on earth i got D !!! one of the reasons is that the grade threshold for May/June 2012 variant 1 which i did was super high.
Minimum grade for A
PAPER 11 35/40
PAPER 21 45/60
PAPER 31 28/40

our teacher said that most of us are not writing the answer which the examiner is looking for in paper 2 and we are not using the key words .....

I think CIE changed their marking system,so many people ended up with grades they never expected :O
i just hope this isnt' the same case for those of us who are doing exams in Oct/Nov :(
