English Literature NEA Edexcel Coursework

Hello!
Just got my mark for my English Literature Alevel NEA and got 37/60. Searched up grade boundaries and stuff for the NEA with Edexcel and yikes!
Just looking for some perspective on this mark since the grade boundaries seem exceptionally high for the NEA. Is my mark going to be a big issue? I need an A for my firm uni choice.
Thanks in advance anyone who responds.

I’m heartbroken with my teachers marking. I got 35/60 and I worked day and night on my NEA. My teacher gave everyone else around full marks and I got really low. I’m so sad and lost hope of getting an A because I’m not the best at the other sections.

Can someone give me hope that I still have a chance?
