You need 39.

I got 28 on S&L and 44 for coursework. I need 42 for an A* according to my teachers.

How are you calculating this?

I got 29/30 for S&L and 49/50 for coursework, what do I need for an A*? My teachers told me that I need 26/50 on the exam to get an A*?

The way you calculate it is by multiplying your speaking and listening mark by 0.843.

E.g (0.843 x 29) = 24.447

Then you add that mark to your coursework

E,g 49 + 24.447 = 73.447 (Rounds down)

The Grade boundaries then are C: 76 B: 86 A: 96 A*: 106

So for this individual to get an A* it is 33 marks

Why 0.843?

Why 0.843?

I think it's because the S+L is out of 25. So to convert it to the 20% it's worth, you have to do that.
