what were the grade boundries laat year need help please!! A*-, A-, B-, C-. Also what is am mark of 66 in grade.


Last year and in the mock I did this year, A* was something like 81/80. but the mark required varies depending on your coursework mark (unless you're on a different board, in which case I have absolute NO idea :biggrin: ).
In terms of JUST the exam and ignoring coursework marks, I think 66 is an A, based on the mock I did grade boundaries

Last year it was 63 for an A and 44 for a B but that paper was quite easy so possibly lower!


Okay thank you!

Bio i think is more important, grade boundaries for statistics are incredibly low - 74% for an A*, and 58% for an A so i wouldn't worry about it , all you need to do is revise the night before hand some of the formulas :smile:


Where did you get these grade boundaries? (lol I don't doubt you, just curious!) :smile:

What do I need for this paper to get an A or a B. If I got a low B in the coursework please reply asap.... Thanks alot...
No-one at my school actually knows how to do the harder topics in Statistics. We just used it to fill in 4 lessons a week and now we got an exam tomorrow.

Can anyone give me a spectrum of what you need to know for a Grade A? (<70 Marks)

And one for an A*? (<85 Marks)

I got 32/40 on my coursework but I estimated that these are going to be the grade boundaries that I want.

There's a new specification now. Its much harder than what 1389 was. My teacher estimated that 85 would be the A* now and 70 would be the A
