Guys when I looked through I think I got a high B very close to an A... what marks do I need to get to get an overall A for Statistics and C2?

Very hard to say how many marks you need, as we don't know the grade boundaries, however a decent A (usually around 65 marks) in both c2 and s1 should be enough to get an A overall providing you have got a high b/ low A in c1.

To get an overall B in AS Maths, according to the grade boundaries for 2015:

You need total of 210 UMS across your 3 exams, if you got a D in C1, that means you got 50 UMS, which leaves you with 160, if you split 160 by 2, that means in the other 2 exams you have to get 80 UMS each, which is an A.

Take a look yourself and calculate yourself, to make sure,

Yeah I could, just need to atleast get a D overall which isn't so bad to resit next year (150 UMS, so three Ds atleast), just got to work my ass of in these next few days, but I have three weeks to revise purely for stats, what do you think I can get in it if I revise 2-3 hours a night most nights? I cant do every night as I work.
