Re: I'm scared I lost a mark...It depends on how everyone else does.
As its out of 200 overall, they'll scale the papers so that each one is out of 100. How it's scaled each year can change- one year 38/50 (assuming that's what it is) may be worth 90UMS, but the next year you might need 45/50 to get 90 UMS. It's hard to say exactly, for that reason.
