Grade boundaries change frequently. The following are the approximate boundaries: A*-----85%+ A------75-84% B------65-74% C------55-64% D------40-54% E------20-39% ------------------ U-----5%- The above information was sourced from a worksheet provided by the Boston Grammar School, England. Date of issue:March 2009 The above information applies only to higher tier exams. Please note: This information is not valid concerning Maths exam boundaries. For approximate Maths boundaries (higher only) please look below: A*----75% A-----60% B-----50% C-----35% D-----20%

For the Unit 2 written paper it's

72= A*

64=A

56=B

48=C

40=D

32=E

(anything below you shouldn't need to know, I hope you're not getting them!)

But overall they are: (out of 200 marks)

180=A*

160=A

140=B

120=C

100=D

But what your overall grade is relies on what you got for the coursework. So take me for example. I got 103/120 in the coursework, so I need 57/80 to get an A overall, because I got higher than a borderline A in the coursework, so just because you get that grade in one of the exams, that isn't your grade overall.

- My teacher also said that the coursework typically gets moderated up by quite a few marks.

What is in maths paper 2?

It's not a set percentage, but it hovers around the 80% region. The grade boundaries are subject to change every year based on the nation's average for GCSE results. Before establishing the grade boundaries, examiners calculate an average of all of the GCSE results (this applies for other subjects as well as maths). If they are worse than the previous year, the grade boundaries will decrease slightly and if the results are higher than the previous year then the grade boundaries will increase, but it can be either side of 80%.
