people are just over reacting paper 4 was not that difficult..
paper 2 was a piece of cake..

why would a person over react infront of thers? and who says paper 2 was hard? but even then u were not the only one to appear, many people lost 20-30 marks and u know what majority did not get good marks so there is 60% possibility that gt will be less than last year mainly becoz of ppr4

last year also the reaction of everyone was the same after giving paper 4 but still the gt was 175+

 

[Igcse giver]

well whenever paper 4 has been hard that is A marks were in 80s and even if paper2 was easy the A star threshold has gone down below 170 so expect A* to be around 165-170

 

[Igcse giver]

so i m guessing A* in 160s

easy for u to say as ur paper 4 went good ur business paper didnt go well and dere u r hoping for low A* mark and i wish it is low for people who found it hard same is the case here paper 4 was found hard to most of the people

 

[Igcse giver]

and last year people found the exams easy hence the gt was high i knw few my friends who gave the exam and they all found it easy

check the business thresholds for the previous year..every year its lower than 150.
i speak fair dude.

 

[Igcse giver]

What about A? :S

130-145 A is always fluctuating

 

[Sarah Ch]

check the business thresholds for the previous year..every year its lower than 150.
i speak fair dude.

Where can we check? :S
Out of 200 right?

check threshold for Maths s11 and w11 and w12 whenever paper 4 A was in 80 A* is in 160s

 

[uzair shahid]

Where can we check? :S
Out of 200 right?

yup
http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge IGCSE/Business Studies (0450)/0450_s12_gt.pdfcheck this 2012 may june threshold

 

[Naufil]

it is 174/200 for A*

 

[Sarah Ch]

130-145 A is always fluctuating

I'm getting 130.
And I want A, are there some chances?

 

[uzair shahid]

check threshold for Maths s11 and w11 and w12 whenever paper 4 A was in 80 A* is in 160s

its very rare.

 

[Igcse giver]

its very rare.

we have only 4 gts to look from and out of them 3 had paper 4 in 80s and A star was in 160s i dont see it as rare

 

[Mohyeldin.Suliman]

My Head of Mathematics predicted 153-158/200 because a lot of people from around the zone found P4 difficult and long and expected a lot of average and higher than average students to score low decreasing the Threshold

 

[aiskjkqdl]

If the boundary for an A* is 175 and I get 175 ,then will it say 90 percentile on my report ?
