    English A Level
    Hi everyone.

    I don't exactly understand how the English A Level marking system works.
    Last year, in my AS exam, I got 77 (3 points off an A). This year I got 48/50 in my coursework... how many marks should I get in this final exam in order to have an A?

    Thank you in advance.

    My entire AS should be 50%... and I'm reading now (Qualifications) that my A2 coursework should be 20% and my A2 exam 30%...
