I performed terribly in a past exam paper but got 100% UMS.

I only got a 55/80 in a Physics past paper (wph11/01 Jan 2019). This mark below 70% is way below my standard, but I (somehow) got a 100% UMS. Do you think this mark is any good?

If it converted to 100 UMS then yes, it clearly is a good score. Physics is a difficult subject and often very low raw marks are needed for top grades, compared to some other subjects.

I have just completed a Chemistry paper (wch01/01 Jan 2016). I have equalled the highest raw mark I have achieved (tied with wch01/01 June 2015 completed last night), but the UMS mark was one off the wch01/01 June 2015, which is 106:107.
What just happened?

I got 100% UMS in another Physics past paper, but the raw mark is about 70%. I am constantly achieving 100% UMS in the Unit 1 papers, so am I ready for the mock tomorrow?
