How we work this out

What it does

Every OCR GCSE English Language grade boundary since 2017, and your grade from your paper marks.

GCSE qualification grade boundaries from AQA, Pearson Edexcel and OCR, for every series and route whose papers add up to the published total.

Method

  1. Pick the series and your route. We read that series' qualification boundaries.
  2. Your paper marks are added up. Where a paper is scaled, its mark is multiplied by the board's scaling factor first.
  3. Your grade is the highest grade whose boundary your total reaches. The gap is the marks from your total to the next boundary.
