Well that makes sense
Cause you need a higher mark in Foundation to get say a C or something, but in Higher you only need a low mark to get a D... does that make sense

[DaVeyWaVey]

Yeah but despite me getting better in the Higher Paper, isn't the foundation paper easier? so wouldn't i be more likely to get a C on the foundation paper than on the higher paper?

It doesn't make sense to me as i did the worst on the easier paper, but better on the harder paper.

Yeah it's been going ok thanks Abbie! I got some of my mock results back already!

Geography- B
French Oral- B
French Reading- D

Well done, Dave, I don't think I'll even get that in my final Geography exam. And as for oral, I'd be ungraded.

Not nesessarily. For one, aren't the first few questions of the Higher, the same as the last few in the Foundation? And you need less right in the Higher for a D. Than Foundation for a D. Even if they are slightly harder. So if you really think about it, it does make sense

Oh, and why will you be ungraded in Oral Kimbo?

'Cause I'm terrible at it, have no confidence, and people say I look like I'm going to throw up. I also speak too fast under pressure, but I can't help it. That's why I'm not taking a foreign language. Yes, the last ones on foundation are the same as the first on higher, 'cause I remember getting lost in my chemistry module. It doesn't make sense, Lea.

[DaVeyWaVey]

Ok, i kinda get you now Lea, it's all soo confusing! And your right, the first few questions on Higher are the last few questions on Foundation.

I did my french oral today...It went ok i supose - I think I must of pressed pause on that tape more than 20 times
My teacher said i got around a high B, im quite happy bout that.

I was the same as you to be honest. But you'd be surprised at how well you do. (Well for me it was). I spoke quiet and fast, but did fine.

and it does make sense lol. Maybe when you do loadsssssssssss of papers in YR 11, it will make more sense, as the teachers go on about it. (Or at least in my school)

[Abbie]

I get confused wtih french grades and stuff, all i know is that i must to do foundation listening as my mock was AWFUL!

[DaVeyWaVey]

Got some more results back from my mocks:

Maths- C
English Literature- A

My english literature paper got marked wrong and the teacher added up my score wrong. I got 54/70 which makes an A! I am so happy with that and with my Maths result too!
