Work back from your paper marks

Fill in what you already have and leave the rest blank. A blank box means not sat yet, which is not the same as a zero.

OCR offers a choice of options here and does not publish which option code belongs to which award, so pick the papers you actually sat.

Questions

What was the grade 4 boundary for OCR GCSE English Language in June 2017?
In June 2017, English Language: 66 out of 160.
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.
