Expecting an A in P1, B in P2

Don't expect too low! Maybe your answers are correct too! XD

 

[Ayesha malik]

i totally agree with proud otaku...ur answers may be right.....majority is not always right...remember that the minorities get an A and even less than those are able to secure themselves an A*.....so PEOPLE nd SAM alike,dnt give up hope so easily..it may be that u r of the one getting a distinction in english language (WOWWWWW!!) is"nt it? i tell u,in edexcel,i cried after giving my urdu paper on the fact that it was the worst ppr ever....nd u know wat i attained highest marks in urdu....also i was pleased with my performance in edexcel pakstudies and u know wat?i got the lowest marks in pkstudies..

 

[Lilly2318]

why do u think u screwed up ? did some mistake?

I screwed up P1 and any chance of an A* by going with that email question -_-

 

[Ayesha malik]

i wrote 27 POINTS.......nd i think all are valid...i had more points but i did not write as i thought they will be controversial.......

 

[Ayesha malik]

s

well, then u must be aware that examiners only check your fifteen points. The rest will be completely ignored

they cut points after 15

 

[Ayesha malik]

they cut points after 15

no chance of them considering??? is this written in examiners report or sumthing??

 

[Awesome12]

they cut points after 15

no they don't
infact you are recommended to write more than 15 points
It works like this
If you have lets say written 17 points; but you get 2 wrong, you will still have 15 correct points, and you will get full makrs
However if you wrote only 15 points, and 2 are wrong, then you will get 13

Read this : http://maxpapers.com/syllabus-materials/english-1123/attachment/1123_w13_ms_21/ These marking scheme for passage A are valid for every year's one!! Examiners are strongly instructed to mark only 15 points then stop!!

[sid2333]

No, he/she is incorrect. Read this, for e.g. http://maxpapers.com/syllabus-materials/english-1123/attachment/1123_w13_ms_21/ FOR PASSAGE A

i hope u are right.....how many points did u write?

 

[sid2333]

i hope u are right.....how many points did u write?

Although there are more than 15, like 20-21 points altogether, but YOU NEED NOT TO write beyond 15. It'll be of NO USE!!

if u read carefully it gives 20 points...it is written that a total of 15 MARKS can be given....

it does not say that writing MORE THAN 15 POINTS IS OF NO USE...i wrote more points in my mox nd my teacher never warned me or anyother class fellow...perheps u should have full INformation before u condemn sumone or sumthing! firstly i have never heard such a thing...
secondly u too are a student and r simply an amateur giving his opinion

 

[sid2333]

Listen pretty lady, it also stated the examiners that MARK A TOTAL OF 15 POINTS ONLY> HAVEN"T YOU READ IN THE FIRST PLACE??? IF YOU STILL THINK WRITING 27 POINTS ARE OKAY, THEN I HAVE NO CONCERN RELATED TO YOU. THE EXAMINER WILL CHECK ONLY FIFTEEN. PRAY GOD THEY WILL BE CORRECT!!
