Greetings.I am writing a petition for AQA to lower the grade boundaries for Unit 2 of physics.The paper was extremely hard compared to previous years and their past papers.Furthermore,it featured a question about "brown dwarfs" which are not part of the specification.Therefore,i,and the whole nation,are requesting AQA to lower the grade boundaries for Physics P2 due to these reasons,plus in Biology Unit 1 ,questions not releated to the specifications were asked(independent company) plus in biology unit 2,a question about "picograms" were asked yet they were not in the specification.Every mark matters,and we want AQA to lower the grade boundaries due to these impossible to know(in regards to the specification) questions.

lower the boundaries
i agree
Lets be honest,they asked some questions off the spec.Lower the Grade Boundaries!
In comparison to previous papers of physics unit 2, the 2016 paper was extremely hard. This is not just me as an individual saying this, but in fact according to social media, majority of the students felt this was difficult. Therefore, we would want you to lower the grade boundaries to 41 for an A*, 32 for an A, 23 for a B and 15 for a C. I know these are quite low but considering how difficult the paper was, it will actually be hard for me to get an A even with those grade boundaries. This is keeping in mind that in all your previous past papers, I never got below 45 marks and after this paper, for the first time I'm feeling I probably didn't even make to 30 marks. P2, B2 and most especially B1 were ridiculous papers. It's very unfair if we compare it to 2015 which was incredibly easy. Please consider our plea. Thanks
The questions were quite random

Trust me the exam was ridiculous. I agree with the grade boundaries to decrease due to the random and irrelevant topics and questions. P2, B2 and B1 were disastrous papers.
