If that link doesn’t work search up WJEC grade boundaries and there’ll be a link for raw mark to UMS converter, change the year from 2025 to any other year and change it from gcse to ‘GCE JUNE’. you can select any unit of any topic and it tells u the raw mark and ums needed for grades

use the link but generally lower then unit 3 tends to be around 55% for an A

Has anyone got any tips for revising? Any predictions on what might come up or thoughts on what to prioritise? I haven't had the best experience with unit 4 😵*💫
