Frequently asked
- What is a typical A* boundary in Biblical Studies?
- Across 7 sessions from June 2023 to June 2026, the A* boundary for Papers 1, 2, 3 and 4 has ranged from 73% (June 2023) to 79% (November 2025), averaging 77%. The E boundary has ranged from 39% to 42%. In June 2026 it was 77% for A* and 40% for E.
- How is the Biblical Studies grade calculated?
- Cambridge converts each paper's raw mark to a weighted mark, adds them, and compares the total with the syllabus thresholds for your combination of papers. For Papers 12, 22, 32, 42 in June 2026 the maximum was 200; the calculator above does this arithmetic for you.
- Why do Biblical Studies grade boundaries change every session?
- Boundaries are set after marking so that a grade represents the same standard whether the paper was slightly harder or easier. A harder paper gets lower boundaries. March, June and November series are set independently, which is why the same grade can need different marks in the same year.
