Full table: 9489 grade boundaries
Post your components and raw marks and we will work out the gap to the grade above and below.
A worked example, so the format is clear.
Paper 5 (component 50, out of 75) — A at 54, B at 45.
A raw 52 is 2 marks under the A line and 7 clear of the B.
Worth being straight about one thing: these are component thresholds. Your overall 9489 grade comes from your total across all your components, not from any single paper — so one paper under the A line does not on its own mean you missed the A.
Post your component (e.g. 50) and your raw mark and we will work out your gap both ways.
