Questions

What was the grade C boundary for OCR A-level English Language and Literature in November 2020?
In November 2020, English Language and Literature (Emc): 75 out of 160; English Language and Literature (Emc): 57 out of 100.
Will the boundaries be the same next year?
No. Boards reset boundaries after every series so a grade means the same thing even when a paper is harder or easier than intended. Past boundaries tell you the likely range, not the answer.
