Well as you might know, some ED-EXCEL GCSE courses consits of 6 Tests throughout the year, 2 each term.
The top 4 heighest you made on all of them go towards your final mark.
I heard that it makes your whole grade up if you took double science. Then the other 2 papers in the summer Take up the other GCSE grade.
Well i got my reults back for last term
Biology - 37/40 (H)
Physics - 30/40 (H)
I'm sitting the next ones in march, for biology and chemistry. Eeek!
Anyone else get their results back!
Got my module results back today and all but they are for AQA, not ED-Excel, but it is similar as we do six tests a year, two a term, except they all go to the final grade and we do an additional two coursework pieces which go towards the grade, anyway I got;
Chemistry 40/50 - A
Biology 45/50 - A*
I was well chuffed :)
Got Biology and Physics in March :)
We use edexcel, the dual award thing right? ours is a bit differant, you have 4 tests in each science thruogh the year(s) marked out of 30, your highest mark in each science goes through as your coursework or something right?
Well in my first one for each science i got:
Biology: 23/30
Chemistry: 28/30
Physics: 26/30
I was pretty happy and well done on your results.
what year are you all in? :s
Ten........
Year 10's now do a different course to those in Year 11. I got my Module results back from the last tests i took.
Chemistry - 18/20 - A*
Biology - 16/20 - A
Physics - 15/20 B
I heard your course is alot harder to get a higher grade on because its out of 40 or w.e?
E overall for science, re taking all 3 modules in march, i hate it tbh..
oh yeah we were talking about that, i'm yr 11 now and supposedly the new science is basically "pub" science and is more discussion than learning proper science so my teacher says. "Supposedly" easier aswell. No fair, i'd prefer it to the rubbish we're doing atm :(
Mine was out of 50 and I wouldn't say it was extremely hard as they spread the difficulty of the questions throughout the paper but the grade boundaries are tight for example you had to of got 95% to get an A* and 85% to get an A.Quote:

Which is kind of unfair?
I remember GCSE Science, We sat 1 exam in year 10... I got 149/150. and overall I got an A*, I loved science. Great subject, hope lots of you take it for A level, I recommend all 3 for A level :)
Chemistry - 27/30 - A*
Physics - 21/30 - B
Biology - 24/30 - A
I'm doing single science. I did chemistry and got a D.
hehe, i'll retake it though.
I do BTEC Science. I have no Exams and its all corsework.
Our Teachers (Both Dr's Ahh) check through your work to see if its at a Pass Standad.
So I get about 4 GCSE's from that :)
Not bad ;)Quote:

fact.
omg mine were so bad I'm predicted A* but erm yeah I didn't get that we did 6 & I got
Physics - D and C
Biology - C and C
Chemistry - B and C
I'm so bad at science I should retake but I forgot all that I did know. Well done to all the people that got A's and stuff because it's hard lol
I got mine back too! :D
Biology - A
Chemistry - B
In our edexcel course we do 12 modules throughout the year which all together count for 25%..
I think in my last tests I got 15/20 (B) and 16/20 [A] which are pretty poor scores tbh.
