Grade Boundaries

Edexcel Project qualifications

January 2020
Understanding our Project Qualification grade boundaries
This document shows the grade boundaries for our suite of Project qualifications. For each set of grade
boundaries, the maximum number of available marks is also shown.

For individual units, maximum marks and grade boundaries are shown in raw marks. Maximum marks
and grade boundaries for the overall qualification (the ‘cash-in’) are shown in points.

Definition of terms

A grade boundary is the minimum mark at which a letter grade can be achieved. For example, if the
grade boundary for a B is 60 marks, then 60 is the minimum mark at which a B can be achieved. A mark
of 59 would therefore be a C grade.

A raw mark is the actual mark awarded by the teacher or examiner for an assessment. Raw mark scores
can be downloaded by Exams Officers from Edexcel Online.

Raw marks are converted to points for all Project qualifications. This is because raw mark grade
boundaries may change from exam session to exam session to take into account variations in the
difficulty of assessments. A Certifying Statement of Provisional Results (results slip) will always show the
points score for Project qualifications.
