Did you do animal shelter or prom?

if animal shelter, that's not an A*
68/80 = 104 ums

You need 160 for an A so you need 56 UMS in the exam.

This would be 47/80 RAW marks in the exam.

The last time in ICT coursework where 68/80 was an A* was Summer 2013.

Might be a misunderstanding, are you sure it was 68? You needed 71 in coursework this year for an A*

You'd need 16 UMS, which is 26 marks.
