29 in the minimum mark to get A out of 40

and 80% UMS is mimimun Percent to get A grade

there fore,   80% = 29
now u get 34 marks the
UMS for 34 would be = 34*80/29

Dasith, yes thats true....29/40 does NOT give 80%....but Edexcel scale all the marks and fixa mark of 29/40 as the minimum to get 80% and hence get an A....this is basically to help improve our marks and make it comparable to previous papers.....good for us!!  ;)

By the way....MY REP POWER IS 90 AND SO ARE MY POSTS!! ;D

29 out of 40 is just one exampleee


i solved a paper (40mark) and scored 30 and in the grading technique the mimnum marks to gain A grade was 29

i used the above method to calculate my rough UMS

You get A in that component. Add UMS of other and calculate for your subject.
