Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

What minimum grades do you need to get in each section for A*s in triple science?

I am not doing triple science but just out of curiosity last year I got a B overall in my core science so these were what I actually got:
Biology - B
Chemistry - B
Physics - C

What would I need to have gotten in unit 2 and 3 for each section to get all A* in triple science?

I'd say roughly an A in each paper then an A* in your ISA

Would you have done 1 ISA or 3 ISAs for each section?

Mid-High A* in Unit 2 and Unit 3 exams, definitely not an A as stated above

It all depends on the UMS mark...

So a C/B in Unit 1, A in Units 2 + 3 and an A* in Unit 4 would be an A* overall.

69+89+89+100 = 347

79+89+89+100 = 357 (Still not possible)

So you need an A* at least, probably a mid-high A* as your ISA is unlikely to be full marks and your Unit 1 is unlikely to be the highest possible B.
