I have recently been getting 100 UMS in the past papers for the old spec-does anyone know how to equate this with the new spec? because I know the new spec is a lot harder.I'm going to be doing the new spec past papers, when I have a revised a bit more because I want to save them for when I'm most knowledgeable at the topics involved on the papers.Do any teachers have a good idea of what the specimen new spec paper grade boundaries should be so that I can easily calculate my grade for them?-they could calculate them based on the standard shown in the May Paper and the grade boundaries for the May Paper.

I would go on the basis of:

Chemistry: A* - 46/60, A - 38/60, B - 31/60, C - 24/60

Biology: A* - 43/60, A - 37/60, B - 31/60, C - 23/60

Physics: A* 42/60, A 36/60, B - 28/60, C - 22/60

I got 48/60 on the specimen, which I'm classing as an A(89) based on the June 12 grade boundaries.Lost so many marks for not mentioning simple things like used bottles are used in the reusing of plastic bottles question and lost so many marks very easily and one of the questions was an utter disgrace line of best fit?-curve of best fit more like!
