So how does everyone feel now it's over? Anyone confident of band 6s?

I don't know.. I didn't feel that good after today's exams were finished. I'm hoping I pulled all band 6s but.. they way I answered some of the questions in ALL the exams, yeah.. I wouldn't give marks to them had I been marking them. I don't know *shrug* Hoping for the best, I guess.

Pretty alright. Lowest mark will definitely be Science, band 4 or low band 5 if I'm lucky. Same with Maths. I'm not really fussed with these subjects.

I'm confident for a band 6 in History, and HOPEFULLY English as well. Band 5 for Geography, and only a band 6 if I am unbelievably, extraordinarly, exceedingly lucky...

I'm hoping for band 6s, although I'd be lucky to get a band 5 for English T_T

There's no way I'm gonna get straight band 6s. I ditched that hope the moment I saw the his&geo papers :eek:

Hoping for at least all band 5+ but that's unlikely to happen

Just wishing for nothing below band 4.

lol.

I really owned Geo. I cross checked my answers for the multi and I got 20/20 and I answered all the other questions over the lines supplied, lol. The rest band 5's not fussed in particular.

Does anyone know how many marks i would need to get in Geo for a band 6?

English, geography and history were good. Science was alright. Maths was humiliating. No idea what bands though...

Nar, I'm just good at it, if I get the chance I might switch subjects.

My educated "feelings" based on trial results and "feelings" of how I went during the eams:

ASSUMING, after aligning: Band 6 = 88 and above. Band 5 = 78 and above.

English - Band 6 (90-92)
Math - Band 6 (91-94)
Science - Band 6/5 (84-88)
History - Band 6/5 (85-88)
Geography - Band 5/6 (83-87) Have a feeling just missed out on 6.

Wow! You guys seemed to have done really well! I was nowhere near as good! :(

- In English, I'm expecting a Band 4 or 5
- In Maths, I'm sure it's a Band 1. I'd definitely be lucky to get 50+ per cent
- I reckon I did better in Science than in Maths; expecting maybe a Band 2 or a lucky 3.
- In History I think I did fairly well. Maybe a Band 4.
- In Geography I did okay. Maybe a Band 3. Could have done better with the extended response which I chose to write about Waste Management.

And I've still got Computing Skills on Friday. From all the practice I've done, I think I could get a Band 5 or 6.

Does anyone else believe they'll get a Band 1 for Maths?? It was so crap, I practically guessed everything! =[

Maths was really crap... Multiple Choice was OK, But the rest... Errr..

I think I got one question right in the Non-Calculator: What operation do you use first, Subtraction or Multiplication? Obviously order of operation, Subtraction. :)

I'm lucky to get 50%+ too.
