GCSE Combined science

[AreThereAnyUsersnamesLeft]

Hello
We have just been to a presentation for year 11 parents and are confused. They are doing "combined science" and will end up with 2 grades.. Previous threads on here talk about double science - where the students end up with 2 GCSEs - does anyone know if that is still still how it works - that if they pass all of the exams, that they have 2 GCSEs? Is it possible to fail half and pass half the exams and end up with one GCSE? What are the names of the two GCSEs they end up with? They are studying biology, chemistry and physics and have two exams in each.
Sorry to be slow ....

Combined Science is the new version of Double Science so if they pass all the exams, pupils end up with 2GCSEs.
The single Science 1 GCSE option no longer exists so if they fail half and pass half the exams they would end up with 2 lower grade(s) rather than one GCSE..

Thanks so much
I'm not sure I understand the last sentence...
If you get grade 2 in the three exams for the first GCSE and grade 6 in the three exams for second GCSE - you would have a grade 2 Lower in the first one and Grade 6 Lower not a grade 2 GCSE and a grade 6 GCSE?

Sorry I'm not getting this at all...

Ah ok - sorry I've been googling double science - they end up getting the same grade twice which is an average of their marks across all 6 papers. But twice.

So if they do well, they get double 7 or double 6....
