)
The june exams are going to be harder due to it's going to be functional skills.

I did the june 2011 and march 2012 exam, and for the june 2011 one a few of my friends got below 100 marks overall and they did get a B. I got about 123 i think and that was an A! I think in the june exams (2012) there will be questions based on functional skills.

Re: Gcse maths exam linear 2nd march & 5th march. Grade boundariesI'll say march was a tiny bit more tricky, btw does anyone know if I could get an A* with approximately 85 on non-calc and 90 on calc?(Original post by Slykid1996)

Re: Gcse maths exam linear 2nd march & 5th march. Grade boundaries
That would definitely be an A*. With the standards of the exams, I cannot see an A* rising above 165/200 which is around june 2011's boundaries as well. So you would be quite your way into the A* grade regardless of it being a bit higher anyway.

TBH I think A* this year is going to be pretty high, probably 175 - 178 marks out of 200. And an "A" is probably going to be 141-145. Also these are only predictions and my estimate after looking at both papers and previous grade boundaries. Best of luck everyone and hope you get the grades you deserve.
