Does anyone know the pass mark yet ?

We don't find out till a few days before our results in March. Previous years to get a C you needed 75 marks. B was around 85. A was around 115. And A* was 137+
What are you aiming to get?

How do you feel the exam went? I'm guessing for a C you'll need between 75-80 out of 180 for this years grade boundaries

The grade boundaries get released the day before, you'll have to search through the Pearson website to find them! Hope you get the grade you need! I'm feeling fairly confident on my biology grade, anxious about my English one though! Need them both at c or above for uni for March intake! Wanted to start in sept but they'd only accept gcse retakes for March🙄
What do you need yours for? 😊

Aww hopefully you'll smash it! If not, you can resit in June and still have your results before September (hopefully in time for your course!) As results come out in August. Have you got a rough idea of how many marks you'll get, did you add them up at the end? You need less than half of the marks to gain a C, the IGCSE markers are pretty lenient too with marking (they usually have around 5 different answers for a 1 mark question)

Grades are slightly lower than previous years, so I'm feeling hopeful!
