If you’re close to a boundary, you might want to ask your teachers if you could apply for a remark. With the new scoring system entering its third year, and including 20 new subjects, many pupils are bound to be checking the boundaries.Įxam boards used to release their grade boundaries in advance of A-level and GCSE results day, but some now only release them on the day in the hope of preventing nervous students from pouring over the boundaries before hand. These are the grade boundaries students need to hit in their GCSE exams.
