Ask for a remark in AQA Maths

It seems like a screwed up my AS Mathe by getting a D, but looking at the raw marks I got 58 and 63 respectively for core 1 and 2 which were out of 75. Got. D and C in those papers respectively should I ask for a remark?

How close to the next grade boundary were you? It would be harder for marks to change in a subject like maths, where examiners follow a strict mark scheme, compared to a subjective subject like English although not impossible. You might find this thread useful to consider whether a remark would be a good idea: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=4246986

Those are not your raw marks, mate. Those are your UMS scores.
50-59 UMS = D
60-69 UMS = C

Your actual raw scores are 49/75 for C1 and 47/75 for C2.

If you got 58/75 for C1 and 63/75 for C2 you would have B and A respectively.

What about your third module? You should've done 3. Maybe that's the one dragging you down rather than C1 and C2
