Best/Easiest exam board?

[Zelda]

How can you guys actually compare exam boards? Unless you guys have retaken your GCSEs/A-Levels with another exam board. We used AQA for everything except for RE which was WJEC(?). I got an A* in RE, but that doesn't mean it's any easier than my AQA exams, because they're different exams...

I found AQA nice and straightforward really, and offered loads of choice in my Maths modules (just a shame I didn't get to pick the ones I preferred )

Can compare maths ones for a levels though cause of text books giving exam exercises where questions taken from diffferent exam boards and stated.

I dno what one I would say is best really, I like ocr though and that's all I take for my a levels anyway! Mei is definitely the hardest though no doubt about that lmao.

All my A Levels are Edexcel, but GCSEs were a mixture of CCEA/AQA/OCR/Edexcel - I agree with @Kardan; though, I don't see how you can compare exam boards when it's different subjects/exams .

I don't think there's an easy one..is there? I don't recall an easy one or better one but most of my A Level exams were with edexcel which seemed straight forward. I can't remember that fat back but I think my exams with AQA and OCR were ok too..

There's only one in Scotland - SQA. I don't understand why there's more than one in England? :S

WJEC is the Welsh examining board: we have them for latin because the grades are easier. Latin teacher constantly reminds us "you get two awards which are worth the same as a GCSE" so I think it's not technically the same?

I think OCR courses are some of the cheaper courses to run too (at college anyway...)

I think some Exam Boards can be easier than others, we looked up past papers for A level Chemistry, and found the Edexcel ones to contain LOTS of multiple choice questions unlike AQA(which I'm on).
