2 Generally, GCE units consist of just one component so no scaling is necessary. In these instances the scaled mark grade boundaries are the same as the raw mark grade boundaries. In some specifications a unit consists of two components (eg Mathematics unit MS1A which comprises components MS/SS1A/W and MS/SS1A/C). Each component then contributes a specific weight to the overall unit mark and scaling factors are applied to the individual component marks to ensure that each component carries the correct weighting.

3 The grade A and E boundaries are set at component level and these boundaries are then scaled and added to provide grade A and E boundaries for the unit as a whole. The grade B, C and D boundaries are determined by interpolation at a unit level and are not set for the constituent components. Because of the order in which rounding takes place, the component boundaries described in this document for these multi-component units should be considered as notional as sometimes the sum of the scaled component boundaries may differ from the unit boundary.

4 For grading purposes a candidate s overall unit mark is compared to the overall unit boundaries as supplied in the results documentation. Uniform mark grade boundaries can be found in Appendix A of the Uniform Marks Leaflet For further information, contact Published 20 August 2009 Scaled mark component grade boundaries - June 2009 examsComponentMaximumCodeComponent TitleScaled MarkABCDEACC1 ACCOUNTING UNIT 1806052453831 ACC2 ACCOUNTING UNIT 2805751464136 ACC3 ACCOUNTING UNIT 3806760534639 ACC4 ACCOUNTING UNIT 4806353443526 ACC5 ACCOUNTING UNIT 51057162534436 ACC6 ACCOUNTING UNIT 61057667595143 ACC7 ACCOUNTING UNIT 71059079685848 ACH1 ARCHAEOLOGY UNIT 1503027242118 ACH2 ARCHAEOLOGY UNIT 2502724211815 ACH3 ARCHAEOLOGY UNIT 3463329252219
