exam/coursework percentages help???!!!!???

I do ocr citizenship gcse.

60% = coursework
40% = exam (2 papers and worth 20% each)

My coursework is at an A/A* but I'm not so confident with my exams (had first exam today and I don't think it went well). My second exam is on Thursday so hopefully that goes better

If I average out at a B/C grade for my exam could I still get an A overall because of my coursework? or no?

so e.g.
60% coursework = A*
20% exam = B
20% exam = B
Overall grade = ???

Need some closure please :3 Thanks.

From my experience, a C will bring it down to a high B. If you manage to get high Bs you will still be able to get an A.
