Frequently asked

For Papers 01, 21, 31, an A needed 92 out of 140 weighted marks (66%). Other paper combinations have their own thresholds — see the table above.
What mark was a pass (grade E) in Spanish Language June 2022?
Grade E is the lowest pass. For Papers 01, 21, 31 it needed 41/140 (30%). 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.
