confused on grades

our son got 2xbs 1xc in history, overall score 164 but only got a c. is this right? He did the AQA papers.
This looks like History B. The grade C covers total score of 144-168.So your son was quite near the B boundary.Was this what you expected?

Thanks for the explanation. No he was expecting anA. Big shock , but hes still hot into college. Hes just disappointed. Thanks again.

If the two Bs were low Bs then yes. When added to the C (possibly a low C) it gives an overall high C. Very annoying. There's really no need to give grades for each component - but exam boards like to confuse.

The marks on your results are UMS. The grade boundaries are RAW. You need to convert your UMS back to RAW.
