    Default Oh shit my exam!

    In my Chemistry paper, we have 2 choices for the last question. 10 (Either) of 10 (Or).

    I forgot to specify whether I did part (Either) or (Or).

    How screwed am I? This part is like 8.33% of my total score lol. It means the difference of 1 whole grade.

    Btw the papers are sent to GCSE people in Cambridge to be marked I think. Are people from Cambridge uptight?

    Probably you will be fine if you are the 1st few papers to be marked. If you are the middle-last few papers, when the markers are getting frustrated of the same crap over and over, you are screwed. If you are the last paper (LAST), you might be spared as well. All depends on how old are the markers (probably in their 60s?)
    -psss no worries... I think they wont mind..

    Been there, done that.

    Apparently, they wouldn't deprive you of your efforts, and I've completely missed it during the time I did it, so yea, ultimately, I think it depends on the marker him/her-self. I do know that I forgot to write the question number for the Chinese composition (Singapore) and I've gotten a B3, obviously, they've taken it into account. I GOT A DAMN B3 BECAUSE MY ORAL EXAM (Pass). SCREW IT. Finger crossed, pray the dude (Cambridge) is not that evil enough, or be as kind as the Singaporean counterparts.

    Furthermore, if your registration no. is in-between your classmates, chances are, he's gonna ignore the (either) (or) selection because he's gonna judge you base on your answers anyway, and possibly tired of refering back and forth the papers. Unless you're undoubtably out of point, he checks the question requirements, you're screwed.

    Most likely, you'll be fine, don't worry. There's no way for you to access the scripts anyway (unless you wanna pay that 100$), let your results tell the picture.

    Relax.
