All good here for English as well, I keep worrying all good means the opposite, my eleven year old thought he had done really well for his entrance exam and he hadn't ...
It is quite a long wait for the results.. :-)

My DS said the same and his friends agreed they were easy questions.He seems to have found them all okay so far but he’s got maths next week which isn’t his best subject.

DD had English literature today too.

I know DD and her friends (and some teachers) are concerned about the grade boundaries being pushed up given they found some of the questions on their last 2 exams less challenging than they expected. I have no idea about this. I’ve warned DD not to get complacent and all she can do is try her best.

At least that’s one more exam off the list and a day closer to the last exam.

Hold on in there everyone 🙂

Yeah, that’s something we just talked about. Time will tell I guess

Yes my dd was also much happier with the English Lit paper, I wonder if they are all doing the same exam board and books or if it is a coincidence?

Phew, it’s nice to have at least one that seems to have gone well

DD really wasn’t that confident after these two. She said Macbeth went ok but she thinks she mucked up on the poems! PE was “ok” but the last 9 mark question was hard. She seems ok though and relieved another 2 are out of the way.

DS’s exam today was on Macbeth and A Christmas Carol. His second paper is Poetry and An Inspector Calls. I think his English exam board is AQA.

Oh, DS had Macbeth & Jekyll & Hyde. But like you, it’s An Inspector Calls & poetry to come.
