Questions

What was the grade 4 boundary for OCR GCSE Chemistry in June 2018?
In June 2018, Chemistry (Gateway) — Higher: 60 out of 180; Chemistry (Twenty First Century) — Higher: 50 out of 180; Chemistry (Gateway) — Foundation: 87 out of 180; Chemistry (Twenty First Century) — Foundation: 82 out of 180.
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.
