Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Somebody help me work this out please?

Hey so i'm doing AQA's Geography A and I'm just wondering if anybody could help me work out what I'd need to get around in order to get an A overall. So I sat my unit 1 and I got UMS 105 which was a B. In the coursework I got 54 (not sure if UMS or raw mark) which was an A star. So what will I need to achieve in this last exam on human geography to get an A overall?

Thank you in advance.

Still wouldn't mind this being answered even though the exam is done?

I didn't do AQA geography so i dont really know the breakdown of the marks. you need to give us:
- what each section is out of in ums
- the two marks you already have

then we can tell you what you need in the last one :smile:

Picture~Perfect

To get an A overall for AS you need a minimum of 240 UMS for A-level its 480 UMS. You should be able to work out what you need from that.

This is GCSE :smile:

I'm not sure what the maximum UMS is at all. I can't find it on the AQA website but they use this Scaled Mark or something.

dude, it's all online:
http://web.aqa.org.uk/over/stat_grade.php?id=04&prev=

find 80/100 of the total ums.
minus the two ums scores you already have.
what's left is the ums you need in the final unit to get an A

hope this helps
