That's understandable. I barely achieved an A at GCSE maths in 2014 and now I'm going off to do Maths at one of the top 10 unis in the country at the end of September. So really, if you're worrying about missing out on an A*, there are worse things that can happen. Try to relax and then decide how much you've hated this exam come results day. :smile:

What league tables are you looking at? From what I've seen Loughborough is around the 20s I think. Congrats though :smile:

Really? Over an hour later and you're telling me that Edexcel still haven't posted it on their main grade boundaries page?

A template really? It doesn't compare to any of the previous grade boundary links.


If it was 140/200 for an A* you wouldn't be questioning it one bit and probably be jumping for joy, just because it isn't as you'd hoped doesn't mean it's fake.

It depends what league tables you look at yes, but Lboro is usually within the top 15 I believe.

It's 20 here for maths, but 7 overall.

It's a personal preference when it comes to league table rankings and such. Of course, I could've applied to something like Glasgow for maths but they are like 30th overall, and for me it's important that my uni is good at every aspect as opposed to a single one. Of course there are extremes like Cambridge and Oxford but that's a different story I never bothered with.

Everyone saying the template is different, therefore fake. Edexcel changed their GB Layout this year. Look at a-level 2015 compared to 2016.

He's saying that Edexcel went through a template style change this year which is evident from the A-Level grade boundaries. Don't worry. These GCSE boundaries are real.
