LCVP

    I'm really surprised. I expected a Merit or Distinction in LCVP but only got a Pass. A lot of people I asked only got a Pass too. What did I do wrong? I put in a tremendous amount of effort, are they really that stupidly picky when correcting it? How did you guys get on?

    Didn't hear of anyone getting a Distinction, I got a Merit, so did most of my friends, I know one person that failed it

    75 % of the people in my year got distinction.

    Yup I got a pass too , even though I was hoping atleast for a merit.

    I know! I got a merit and I got 90% on the mock for the written paper *urgh*

    I wish I had done WORSE on the mock, then I would of studied much harder than just reading all the marking schemes for the written exams.

    I'm getting it at least looked at by a teacher cos if my coursework was that poor (enough to drag down a fair enough written exam) why didn't my teacher say something to me when I asked her to have a quick look through it?

    On the other hand, if my exam was terrible, it makes me think: how the hell was it marked? I used the whole state, explain, example and nothing I wrote was off the wall, crazy answers. I finished it with about a minute or too to spare. Was it because my pen ran out and I finished the exam in pencil? :pac: Was it my handwriting?

    I know I sound like I'm ranting, I don't need the extra points (I'm fine with my second choice of course). I'd just like a look at it.

    Yeah they must of been rather picky.

    I got a distinction. Happy out, I spend hours upon hours doing and re-doing my portfolio so it was something I was happy with.
