    I think I got in the margin of 80 to 87 for the non calc and 85 onwards for the calculator. Would that be enough for an A*?

    I totally messed up these exams, I was really aiming for an A but as I see it I'm at least 10 marks away from it Didn't expect them to be so hard and tricky.

    What would 183/200 get? I got 89 and 94 Maximum on both papers.
    Minimum would be 85+90=175/200. Is this a B or A?
