Is it still possible to get an A or a BI did OCR politics in January and got a C, two marks off a B. I got 68 and you needed 70 for a B. If my marks on this exam are carried forward, is it still possible to achieve an overall high grade with alot of hardwork?

Re: Is it still possible to get an A or a BAssuming you're talking about OCR GCE Government and Politics (A Level), yes it's still possible for you to get almost any grade.
The course covers 4 modules, 2 in the AS year and 2 in the A2 year. Each module is worth 100 UMS meaning the A level in total is out of 400 UMS. In order to get an A you need to achieve 80% of the total available UMS and therefore you need 320/400 marks. You currently have 68/100 in your first module which means over the remaining three modules you need a total of 252 UMS (320-68=252), this means you need an average of 84% (252/3=84%) over your remaining 3 modules. -
