I'm taking unit 3 this summer, what are the full grade boundaries for it from A*-C out of 160? :smile:

-edit- Just figured it out according to the unit 1 & 2 boundaries being 90% for A*, 80% for A, 70% for B, e.c.t...:

144/160 = A*
128/160 = A
112/160 = B
96/160 = C

So if I'm getting 55s out of 80 what grade and UMS is that?

It changes all the time... I'd guess at a B... But your guess is as good as mine...

My Username is really Poisson Distribution :mmm:

According to Edexcel it's a very high C, you're about 1 or 2 marks off a B. But are you sure you're not on AQA? Results aren't given out of 80 for Edexcel. :confused:

Who knows the grade boundaries for the Unit 2 exam? I got 110/120(A*) in Unit 1 and hoping to get at least an A in Unit 2, which would help if I messed up in Unit 3. Thank you!

108/120 = A*
96/120 = A
84/120 = B

Personally, Unit 2 is the hardest, but that's me and algebra for you. :redface:

Hope this helps
