    My years LC business papers were marked soooo harshly...no one in the entire year got an a and normally were a smart enough bunch :O
    I normally get an A and i just got my result and got a C2 :( So annoying...
    Anyone else have really unexpected results/badly corrected?

    I've been getting A1s and A2s in English for the past two years, got my mock back (which I knew wasn't great but wasn't terrible either...) and got a C3....

    I'm surprised at how much it's knocked my confidence in the subject. And it's not like I assumed I would do well, I'm really worried now because I was working very hard but apparently it's not enough...

    Stupid mocks...

    English is notoriously badly corrected in the mocks! Blame it on that :D

    Please don't discuss the contents of Mock papers in this thread, that's what the other big one is for.

    One post moved. :)

    I sure hope they mean pretty much nothing, all I got was a D in maths and c2 in French, Chemistry and Geography. Doesn't look good , I can pretty much swear that I failed english as well.... Good thing is, I did more study in the last 3 weeks(15 hours+) than for my Mocks, working my way up to doing at least 1 hour of study everyday.

    Exactly what happened to me, confidence in english has taken a hit, people who mitched off for like 2 months got more than me :(

    My english teacher told me that he got 61 in his mocks and an A1 in the Leaving, just shows anythings possible

    I got a D1 in my English mock last year. Totally crushed. Went to a grind to pinpoint what I had done wrong in the exam (my teacher was awful). It turned out to be about exam technique - timing, not panicking under pressure, etc. Long story short, it helped me up my game in exams (I'm normally an A student in class) and I got my A in the real thing. :) Don't worry too much about the mocks, or let them freak you out. They're a dry-run, a chance to practice timing, and more generally a kick up the backside. Spend a day or so taking stock and move on.

    2 results so far. 73% in biology, although our biology teacher told us that the paper was far too easy (examcraft).

    85% in history. Get in there!

    Technology - Examcraft - 54%

    I wasn't satisfied with that but I compared with some of the people that got higher than me in the class and they had a lot of the same answers as I did and I got zero marks for the same answers that they got full marks in. So in conclusion, the Tech corrector was a retarded monkey from the zoo on the loose.

    Don't be too hard on yourself! First of all...When you get those A1s and A2s they're on a certain part of a course, Not the whole thing. For the mocks, you did grand! Plus, maybe you were a little too confident going in? If you're used to As then maybe you focused on other subjects more.? Think about it. You have 3 months. You could make a BIG difference, with the work needed :)

    This is all true at Christmas I got a C1 in Economics that was just on what we had done in 6th year,so I started the revision then and got an A1 in the mocks,even 2-3 hrs a night makes such a difference.

    I wouldnt worry- they are correctly generally poorly. When I did my JC mocks few years ago I got a D in English and went on to get an A in the real thing.

    I'd just forget about it really tbh. Ask your teacher to correct it again for you perhaps.

    Just the three back so far:

    Maths and app maths were A1's and chem was A2 but so damn close to the A1.

    Going downhill from here :(
