would u say these are good or bad grades?

English language = 8
English literature = 6
Maths = 5
Science = 6
RE = 6
Art = 4

1x= A
3x = B
2x = C

Total = 6 Gcses

i meant are they Good Bad or Average?

good/bad/average is subjective. also i'm pretty sure 8's equivalent to an A*, not an A.

No. 8 is an A*. 9 is the top 20% of people who get a 7 or 8 (so about the top 3-5% of people).

yes, 9 is like the top end of an A* and an 8 the lower end of it.

6-7 B 6 being a low B 7 being a high B
8-9 8 being an A 9 being A star

look at this : https://ofqual.blog.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/137/2018/01/Grading-2018-1.png
as you can see, the A* is between the 8 and 9. that could mean that a 9 is a high A* and an 8 is an A*
If you look at the actual equivalent sheet produced the only things that are exactly equivalent are a 7=A and a 4=CEverything else is in between different letter grades
