2020 History OL Written paper total marks 400 and RSR 100 marks. RSR 20% of total marks.

2021 & 2022 History OL Written paper total marks 300 and RSR 100 marks. RSR 25% of total marks.

Same time 2.50 mins.

The RSR has increased in value by 5%.

The 2023 paper will follow the 2022 marks.

Am I correct in the above?

Thank you.

No, is the short answer!

There was an adjustment made to the written paper mark so that it was still worth the same percentage as other years.

Many thanks.

So in 2023 there will be 300 marks for the written paper and 100 marks for the RSR.

Are you saying that the 300 marks will be adjusted to ensure it is 80% of the total exam

What do they do to adjust the marks?

I appreciate you reply.

There was a ready reckoner that examiners put the results into initially, but with online marking it all happens on the computer.
