UMS into raw mark

Received my exam results from the AQA board, all my marks are in UMS form, and the grade boundaries up on the website are just raw marks.

How do I convert my UMS mark into a raw mark, so I can see where abouts I was inside my grade.

I don't have a clue how to convert UMS to raw marks, but you should be able to see where abouts your grades were by comparing your UMS marks to the standard UMS boundaries! :biggrin:

you can't convert. the method of conversion is different for every paper, every year. you can ask for the raw marks but tbh, there isnt really much point. UMS is the be all and end all.

Speak to your teachers...they should know the breakdown of your exam...what you got on each question!

But you should be able to see how many UMS you were of the next grade!

i thought it was something along the lines of UMS Mark divided by 1.5
