Grade Thresholds

FURTHER MATHEMATICS
GCE Advanced Level

Grade thresholds taken for Syllabus 9231 (Further Mathematics) in the May/June 2013 examination.

maximum minimum mark required for grade:


mark
available A B E

Component 11 100 77 69 40
Component 12 100 77 69 40
Component 13 100 76 64 34
Component 21 100 87 71 36
Component 22 100 87 71 36
Component 23 100 76 62 37

The thresholds (minimum marks) for Grades C and D are normally set by dividing the mark range between
the B and the E thresholds into three. For example, if the difference between the B and the E threshold is
24 marks, the C threshold is set 8 marks below the B threshold and the D threshold is set another 8 marks
down. If dividing the interval by three results in a fraction of a mark, then the threshold is normally rounded
down. Grade A* does not exist at the level of an individual component.

The thresholds for the syllabus are determined first by adding together the thresholds for the components
taken by the candidate. A reduction may be made at the higher grades depending on the correlation of the
papers. If the maximum raw marks for the components are not in the weighting/relationship specified in the
syllabus, a weighting is applied to arrive at the overall thresholds. The A* threshold is calculated using the
difference between A and B as a starting point.

The maximum total mark for this syllabus is 200.

For this syllabus in this series the grade thresholds were as follows:

Option Combination of components A* A B C D E

AX 11, 21
188 164 140 118 97 76
AY 12, 22

AZ 13, 23 178 152 126 107 89 71

Grade Thresholds are published for all GCE A/AS and IGCSE subjects where a corresponding mark scheme
is available.
