9 students of our 60 student year group received their grades today - all 9 of those students having been predicted 42+. A few of those students had never received grades lower than a 6 in their IBDP journey, and one student had the highest IGCE math score GLOBALLY in 2024.

Of those 9 students, the highest grade was a 41 - is something different this year? I feel as if marking was extremely fierce…

Personally, I was predicted a 36 and I felt as if I had achieved a minimum of a 35. I ended up with a 33.

Has anyone else seen anything similar at their school? Or have we just had a shocker of a year…

Thanks,

Hi all,

I pinned 1mg last night and I am not entirely sure when / how I’m supposed to feel the effects of Reta.

I feel slightly wired now (it’s been 12 hours) and I feel as if I am less hungry…? That might be placebo but I’m not sure.

Thanks,

Bought a Chrome Hearts Multi Color Cross Cemetery Zip Up Hoodie (Size L) on StockX last Saturday. My bid was accepted at a price significantly below the most recent sale - we’re talking a big gap. Needless to say I was thrilled. Fast forward to today (Wednesday) and the order is still sitting at “Waiting for Seller to Ship.”

I contacted support through live chat and the rep told me the seller has never completed a successful order on StockX and that their shipping deadline was yesterday. Alarmed, I called in and spoke to someone else who told me the deadline was also yesterday - but then said the seller actually has had multiple successful sales. Complete contradiction.

The app itself shows the seller has until May 8th, so I don’t know which to believe.

I really don’t want to cancel. This hoodie essentially doesn’t exist at the price I got it for - there’s nothing comparable listed anywhere near it. A rematch is also basically useless because no seller is going to accept a bid this far below market.

Has anyone been in a situation like this? Did the seller end up shipping late? Did StockX actually enforce anything? And if it does fall through, is there any recourse beyond just getting refunded?

Thanks,

I live in Switzerland and there are no reputable stores or resellers here (and the JOY store is always dry) so StockX seems to be the 2nd best thing.

Nevermind the prices - can I be certain that the pieces I buy are authentic?

I’ve already bought the Black Floral Crewneck Sweater in a size XL, and just ordered the Multi Colour Cross Cemetery Zip-Up hoodie in a black L.

I’m completely against fakes, and since I paid a reasonably large price for both I wanted to know if StockX’s authentication process is really as good as they claim.

Thanks,
JW
