    Physics A LEVEL QUESTION PLEASEEE ABOUT MODULES ????
    Hi I was just wondering is it possible to get an A overall at A-Level physics with having a grade C at the practical for AS which is 20% of the overall as grade ????????

    480 UMS for an A
    360 UMS for a C
    You have between 36 and 41 out of 60 UMS for your practical exam.
    Surely now you can work out that it is possible. You can get an A in A-Level Physics without even taking AS or A2 practical exams. (But not A*)

    I got a U in AS Physics practical exams (13 UMS) but I am aiming for an A which I think is in reach, although I am retaking those practicals in 2 weeks. Of course it is possible, do the maths.
