Were you sitting Foundation or Higher?

The grade boundaries vary year upon year, but to give you an approximate idea, the 2019 grade boundaries look like this:

Higher Tier
Grade 3 - 27
Grade 4 - 43
Grade 5 - 74
Grade 6 - 104

Foundation Tier
Grade 2 - 57
Grade 3 - 89
Grade 4 - 122
Grade 5 - 157

So basically, if it was higher tier, you are approximately around the boundary between grade 4 and 5. If it was foundation tier, you are working approximately around a grade 2.

When receiving my results I had actually bagged a 5 😂
now I have completed my gcse exams and managed to get a 6 in my February mock exam- as a higher student. I am awaiting my results on October 25th next month. Wish me luck 🍀 !x
