Help With A* maths grade AQA

HI I'm kind of new to this but could any one tell me if this would qualify for an A* grade?

Oh I'm doing two A levels in maths.

A level 1: A level 2 :
Core 1 80 S1 67
Core 2 64 S2 100
Core 3 90 D1 100
Core 4 90 D2 90
M1 96 FP3 68
M2 65 FP1 73


If not is there anyb way I could arrange the moduals so I could get an A* in one of them . Thanks so much , I really don't understand the new system.

PS. The exam board AQA if that changes anything.

It's not that new a system - it's been running for 2 summers. You need at least 480 overall and at least 180 from C3 and C4 so I think you have an A*.

In A-Level Maths you have over 80% and 90% average in C3/C4 which is an A*.
In Further Maths you have an average of over 80%, but you don't have an average of 90% in 3 A2 modules, meaning you don't have an A*. Getting either 80 in M2 or FP3 would have given you an A* (alongside your 100 in S2 and 90 in D2)
