very rough guess of ~71? i have no clue

 

[Skeptyks]

Thanks, 71 sounds good

last year was an easy test. Cutoff would be more like 79-80 for band 6 and 65 for band 5.

thanks ^

I'd be aiming for 85+ if you want a band 6

perhaps since eco is a more difficult subject, and its the day after advanced english, the cut off should be lower this year?

Yeah, i agree. I think the timing of it straight after english will lower the bands just slightly - probably 78-79ish for a band 6 imo

? but i thought it was the markers/people at the marking centre themselves who decides the cut-off for bands so even though its the day after english, it shouldn't affect it?
