Really???...Because for my coursworks I got A*AABB and my teacher added them all together and got 87 and then he told me if you divide it by 2 to work out your average grade it will be a mid B :s-smilie:

....I don't understand my why my teacher would say it's a mid B...because if you look here:

http://store.aqa.org.uk/qual/pdf/AQA-3702-W-SP-08.PDF

it says 43-48 marks is an A.

Nah, don't think so.

Thats a high B

enter you marks into this

and it should give a good idea out of /108 then reduce that into a percentage and you will have what percentage out of 20% you got for you coursework

.....and for my shakespeare I got a B but for my prose I got an A but I don't know what that averages out to be. :woo:

That's English Language though.

The link below, if you scroll down to the raw marks section, states that 46-52 out of 57 (your coursework average/54 + maximum of 3 marks for quality of written communication) is needed for an A.
