AQA English Literature 2024 NEA Coursework Grade Boundaries

Hey, I got 44/50 in my English lit coursework so I was just wondering roughly what grade that is. Obviously the grade boundaries haven’t been released so what year is the most accurate to compare results with.

I got the exact same. My teacher said it works out as an A grade. I made a grade table and A grade is the most accurate for 44/50

How long did it take for your teachers to tell you the score? I handed mine in recently but I’m not sure if they will give us back our scores or if we have to wait until results day

Our school has now officially published the results, they told us now is the deadline to appeal but if you don’t you will get the grade they gave you

Hello! I got mine back today and my teacher said last years grade boundaries were 45/50 for an A*, so 44 is an A at the moment unless the grade boundaries drop!

I'll base this off my January mocks (2023 papers). Overall, I got an A. In Paper 2 was two marks off an A* whereas in Paper 1, I was 4 marks off an A. To break it down, my scores on each essay were as follows:

Paper 1:
Othello - 17/25
Unseen Poetry - 15/25 (moderated down by 2 marks)
The Great Gatsby/Pre 1900 - 17/25

Paper 2:
The Handmaid's Tale/A Streetcar Named Desire - 23/25
Unseen Prose - 15/25
Feminine Gospels - 22/25

I've been awarded As for essays marked 19/25. To be safe, I'll say 21-22 out of 25 secures you an A*. 18-20 would be
your A grade.

Considering my unseen grades😅, does anyone have any advice for these sections?
