Wondering if today's papers 2 and 5 were generally considered horrid, or if my DS had a solo blip 😯

My youngest took her A levels last year and didn’t do CIE/CAIE so cannot offer any specific advice. What I can say is that after A level Biology paper 1 last year (I think it was OCR) dd declared she knew nothing on the paper and just made up stuff and that she wouldn’t be able to go to Uni. She cried for days. Paper 2 she thought went really well. Both paper 1 & paper 2 were worth the same marks. Anyway she got near identical marks for the 2 papers and ended up with an A star. Anyway the point to all this is that I don’t think students are necessarily very good at assessing how they did. Hoping your ds gets the grade he is after.
