GCSE Business Studies, Easy?

Question

I have just taken my business gcse and i found it really hard, i think i have definitely lost a lot of marks on it. Although i achieved full marks in my coursework, i think my exam will pull me right down. Does anyone know if the mark scheme is harsh and how many marks you need to get to achieve a high mark? i really want to do well ):

Answer 1

Depends what board you did. I found AQA thought, but not Edexcel sorry.

It's the 2007 one.

AQA:

Don't worry. As long as you tried your hardest, it's OK.

Answer 2

i thought it was to good to be true lol

im with edexcel unit 3 which is the exam part of it what board are you with?

im sure your coursework would help your overall grade

anyway good luck if you got any more exams im sure you'll get the grade you want xx

Answer 3

I did the Edexcel GCSE business exam today and i thought it was quite hard too. The grade boundaries change every year depending on the difficulty of the exam. Last year to get an A* you only needed something like 75% but that was a difficult exam. I think it will be similar to last year so you probably did alright, especially since youve got 25% already (from coursework).
