Maths edexcel grade boundaries??

Overall I want a B on my first maths paper I counted up to 49-55 and on my second one 49-57, what would the grade boundaries be (mainly for B)??

You should work by the guideline that 80% is an A, 70% is a B, 60% is a C and so on... But depending on the difficulty of your test the percentage boundaries will fluctuate.

Edit: This is for A Level maths. My bad.

No more than 102

I'd say high C/ low B. What do you think 166 will get?

It's usually a lot lower than that. 76% was an A* last year

Definitely an A, maybe a cheeky A* tbh

Oh I see my mistake. I assumed this was about A Level maths.. My bad, even then 155/125/95/65 were my years grade boundaries for A*/A/B/C respectively.
