A-Level History Coursework

How is my final grade worked out for my A-Levels? (I'm in Wales if this is important)
My coursework acts as 20% of my final grade, so the other 80% comes from last year and my exams this year - Is twenty percent a lot?
I've gotten my grade back for the coursework and its an 57/60 so an A I think, so if it can bring my final grade up as a whole I'll be really relieved, history isn't my strongest subject (I hate it lol)
I got a D overall last year so hypothetically what would an A do to that? I know its dependant on boundaries and I haven't sat my exams for this year yet but I'm just curious, thank you :smile:

Hey I am from England but my coursework was also worth 20% of the grade so I imagine it is similar. If you got an A in your coursework (really well done btw that's difficult!), then you should only need Bs in the other papers to get an A overall. For example if you got a B in one and C in the other, you would still get a good B. And if you get high Bs or As in both then you'll have an A*! I hope this helps and this is just info that I got from my school based on the boundaries from last year.
