Yes i had explained both very well but just missed a point that i mentioned above.. other than that, my paper went awesome.. i m just worried about this question that how much marks they do deduct for just one reason? there were other reasons which i have mentioned but just one i forgot to write. i hope they grant some concessions to me nd give me 12-13 marks so I could get an A*
There is no negative marking or deducting in CIE... it depends on the quality of your answer... hope that u get good marks anyhow. ;)

The grade thresholds or boundaries change every year... they depend on many factors like the difficulty of the paper compared to previous years papers, the percentile system etc.
No I think what u are saying is wrong... according to what I have heard, there are two possible ways:
1. The one who scores highest e.g 72, then those marks will be considered 100%, and the rest will be calculated out of that much e.g u got 64, so it will be calculated 64/72.
2. The marks are graded according to a percentile system... your marks are compared to others who did the exams, like if your marks are better than 85% of the candidates, you will get 85%; I think it's like it.
Personally, I think the second one is more convincing. :)
