GCSE Statistics - how many marks for an A

Anyone know the mark equivalent for an A? Wondering if i was close
What exam board? For AQA, it's 72/100 and 28/40 for Units 1H and 2 respectively. For Edexcel it's 59/100 and 28/40 for Units 1H and 2 respectively. Source [1] [2].

Edexcel - I got 126 in Statistics 1 and 33 in Statistics 2 so how far off was I overall from getting an A?
Thank you for the help :smile:

Oh no, it seems like you were 1 mark off from getting an A! It looks like those marks are UMS rather than raw marks which means you got 159/200 UMS overall and the A boundary is 160/200. Sorry about that but at least well done for practically getting an A!
