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.

IGCSE maths is allot more difficult then GCSE maths and so is any grade you wish to obtain. A C grade at GCSE is roughly 35% whilst at GCSE is 60%
i also don't know
you tell me! it's out of 40 so 90% for A* so 36 out of 40 and anything less for an A or less!
Each subject has different grade boundaries. You should ask your teacher who will know what these are for your particular subject.
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%.
The grade boundaries for AQA GCSE Higher Tier Core Science vary each year and are not pre-determined. They are set after all the papers have been marked, taking into consideration the overall performance of students. You can find the grade boundaries on the AQA website once they are released.
It depends from GCSE to GCSE. Ask your teacher what the A score mark is worth.
Grade c/b
Just got mine back today. Its out of 40 so D was 15, C was 19, B was 24, A was 30 and A* was 36. ^_^
A 'P' grade is most likely 'passing'.
Grade E
A*
