Also, my geography teacher expected 7 people to get As and not one of us did (even the guy that got 9 As and 1 .

Geography had the third lowest A rate of all the JC subjects at 8.6% (HL) / 8.5% (OL). Only Woodwork and Evironmental Studies had lower rates.

I got a B in French and my teacher wants me to appeal, I'm flattered that he thinks I should have gotten an A but I don't see the point and I'm perfectly happy with the B. Also, my geography teacher expected 7 people to get As and not one of us did (even the guy that got 9 As and 1 .

Our geography teacher expected none of us to get A's, so nice. :pac:

Does anyone else feel kinda sad that the JC is finally fully over ?

I nearly died when i saw the English A. My teacher kept giving me B's and C's for 3 years and this happens. First person I saw when I got it was her and she was shocked to say the least. Only 5 in my year got A's in English too

Ashamed to have gotten a B in CSPE as I can't think of anything I did wrong

Feel hard done by in French and Business as I came out of both very very confident of an A, especially business, I did it to a tee...but it's not worth worrying about xD

Only 1 person in our school got an A on irish, fair play :L. C's and D's prevailed and B's were treated like A's until we found out someone actually got one :P

Don't be ashamed of a B in CSPE - for some reason people think it's a definite A for everyone. It's not. I have been saying that on this forum for years, but still people think they will get an A.

About 1 in 5 get an A in CSPE - proportionally more get an A in Art and people go on about how hard an A in Art is.

Ashamed was perhaps a poor choice of words on my part, but in the mocks I got like 95% and it was a bit of a shock seeing as it felt very similar to our mock paper. But not that you can be ashamed of a B in anything

Only 6 A's in Business Studies (HL and OL) in total out of our year that had about 60 business students in total. Business teachers ain't happy.

One lad in my class failed CSPE. He admitted that his project was half-hearted but still he is blown away that he managed to fail the "infallible subject"

A lot of D's and C's among my friends as well. But a good scatter of A's in the year as well; mostly from people who got out of the "guaranteed-A-in-CSPE" mindset before it was too late

Wtf and no one got an A and only 1 got a B....

Oh, a lot of the results in our school were dreadful.

One guy got 9A's and a C (in English), another with 7A/3B, I got 4A/3B/3C/, one person got 2A's, a couple of people with 1A and then the rest just B's/C's/D'/E's.
