Thanks for answering! :smile:

Are you sure though? As last year the A* grade boundary was 88(?)%! :frown:


last year was piss easy, got 100% on that paper. THIS YEAR SHOULD BE AROUND 82-85. So youd be fine just do bit better in calc :biggrin:

yeah you should. I did 8x20/0.5 it was a mistake, but the answer is closer to the real answer


Thank you
What were last year's grade boundaries?!?!?!
Can someone please tell me.
They are likely to be a bit lower this year aren't they? I think I got 50-54, I really want a B. I'm going to do better on calc.

So what were last year's? THANK YOU!

Grade: A* A B C D
Nov 2010: 170 136 102 68 42
June 2010: 176 141 103 66 39

this years grade boundaries should be low to about 4-6 marks considering it was a hard paper.
