Frequently asked
- What was the A* boundary for Mathematics in June 2026?
- For Papers 11, 31, 41, 51, an A* needed 223 out of 250 weighted marks (90%). Other paper combinations have their own thresholds — see the table above.
- What mark was a pass (grade E) in Mathematics June 2026?
- Grade E is the lowest pass. For Papers 11, 31, 41, 51 it needed 60/250 (24%). Below that the result is U (ungraded).
- Why are the paper thresholds different from the overall boundaries?
- Cambridge sets a threshold for each paper (component) first, then weights and adds them to get the syllabus boundary for each combination of papers. Your grade comes from the weighted total, not from any single paper. Paper thresholds have no A* — the A* only exists at syllabus level.
- Did Mathematics grade boundaries go up or down in June 2026?
- Compared with June 2025, the A* boundary for Papers 11, 31, 41, 51 fell by 1 mark (224 → 223) and the E boundary rose by 3 marks (57 → 60). Boundaries move to keep the standard constant when a paper turns out harder or easier than usual.
