    In Science, the teachers have entered me for the higher paper in Biology but for foundation in Physics and Chemistry. I'd really like a B overall in Science. If I got an A in the Biology test and a high C in the other two. Do you think that would equate to a high C or a low/middle B overall?

    depends what UMS you get.. look at the current UMS boundaries for last year's papers, it may be similar to the ones you will take..

    Just guessing here, but I would say it's more likely to cross the B boundary. And whether it's low/middle is all based on how high the A is.
