Review of marking Paper 1 English Language

2 replies

My friend is unsure on what to do so asking on their behalf. They are unsure of whether they should submit Paper 1 for review of marking. Teacher has said on the whole the marking is fair, however, question 3 has a potential to move up - but all depends on the examiner you get reviewing it on the day as it is subjective. Examiner commnets said it was L2 but teacher thinks it could be a L3. Their concern is what if grades go down? She is one mark away from the next grade boundary so she would have to go down 9 marks to stay in the same grade and moved 10 marks to get a whole grade lower. Any advice or experiences would be great. Thank you.

If the marking is fair then it won’t move - remarks are no longer offered, only reviews of whether the mark scheme was applied reasonably. That said, if it’s only a one mark difference then it can’t hurt. Going down an entire grade would be highly unlikely

Thanks for your reply. I think they are just anxious if it could go down 10 marks. Hopefully not if they decide to go for it. Thanks once again.
