Guys, how did you find the English exam overall? (Variant 1) How do you expect the curve to be?

I'm talking about IGCSE English as a Second Language 0510. (i think thats the code xD)

I found it pretty hard unfortunately. Especially today's Paper 4.
Do you think a 100/120 (83%) would make an A or an A*?

And also, if I write a word or two (maximum) beneath the lines would they consider those words?

PLEASE HELP ;(

Hmmmm depends on the curve :/ we cant tell :/ but 120's like -20 marks... hmmm lets pray that's an A atleast :)
inshaAllah!

Hmmmmmmmm u shuld like stay within the boundaries of the line! bcz ur paper will be scanned :/ and im not sure they'll see it! bt if u did write extra then yu must have wrote it closely near the line b4 :) ... like this --> _____________this is ur line___________________________ <--
.................................................................................. .---> u should like touch the top line! so wen they scan it, they can like tell there's something beneath it :)

English thershold is out of 100 :p 84 convert it to 70 and 36 convert it to 30 usually an an A* is 83 + which means getting around 100 or more out of 120 can usually mean an A* :) goodluck

Yeah, I mean the line wasn't enough so I completed in the space under the line and above the next question.
You think that's ok?

Well DC1313 , They do say write as short as possible :| because the number of lines they give u tells u that its not a lot to write, bt u knw, i think its OK that u wrote it that way, as long as u gave them the answer they're looking for :) and not like deviating :)

im not sure about articles and writing :p maybe an OCR or actually a scan because you need a readable hand writing for the examiner to understand it
