Grade boundaries differ from year to year, and I'm pretty sure 53/60 is a 9, as I've heard that around 75% is a 9.
On your actual exam, it would take you to get around >70-80% to get a 9 (prediction), as normally, the grade boundaries for English language and literature are incredibly high every year.
It depends on how the whole cohort does - you can look online to find out last years results. :smile:
