4. A2 is harder than AS
You need to be realistic about University
applications.
Your predicted grade will either be your AS
grade or a grade lower (your ALIS grade).
5. 1. Get your total score for AS (out of 200) by
adding your 2 UMS scores (n0t %) together.
For AS
2. A2 is out of 400
3. Look at which grade you want to aim for then
work out if its realistic by taking the score
needed at A2 and subtracting your score at AS
A B C D E
160 140 120 100 80
A B C D E
320 280 240 200 160
6. Say you got 160 in your AS
You want to aim for an A grade at A2 so it’s
320 - 160 = 160. There are 2 units at A2 so
divide by 2 - that’s 80% average needed.
