There must be someone who can help me untangle the enigma of UMS...
Taking 2014 OCR English Literature as an example:
Say I got a mark of 55 in F661, how would I convert that to UMS?
I tried working out the difference between an A and a B in raw marks (54-46=8) and, as each grade is separated by 10% UMS, calculated that 1 mark is equal to 1.25% (8/10 = 1.25), which equates to 1.5 UMS (0.0125 x 120 = 1.5).
As I got 1 mark above the A boundary, this would mean I have a UMS of 97.5 (96 + 1.25 = 97.5)
However, if I did the same calculation with a mark of 60 (full marks), this would equate to just 105 UMS ((1.25 x 6) + 96), but full marks MUST be 120 UMS. So am I barking up the wrong tree? If so, how on God's earth do you do this?
