This means the qualifications can be taken in chunks, or units, throughout the course. At the end of the course, you pull together all of the unit results into an overall qualification grade. The mark you get on each exam paper or coursework unit will be your unit mark. This is sometimes called a ‘raw’ mark.  \nHowever, the difficulty of Cambridge Nationals exam papers may vary. In order to make sure results are consistent from year to year, we convert the raw marks to a common scale with grade boundaries that do not change. This scale is known as the uniform mark scale (UMS) .  \nA grade boundary is the minimum mark you need to get a grade. For example, if the unit grade boundary for a merit at Level 2 is 42 UMS, you need to get at least 42 UMS to achieve a merit at Level 2. A mark of 41 UMS would therefore be a pass at Level 2. The unit raw mark and UMS  \ngrade boundaries are provided within this document. If you want to convert a specific raw mark to UMS, you can use our online tool ([ocr.org.uk/qualifications/convert-raw-marks-to-ums](ocr.org.uk/qualifications/convert-raw-marks-to-ums)) .  \nUnits are graded as follows:  \n• 2* – distinction* at Level 2  \n• d2 – distinction at Level 2  \n• m2 – merit at Level 2  \n• p2 – pass at Level 2  \n• d1 – distinction at Level 1  \n• m1 – merit at Level 1  \n• p1 – pass at Level 1  \nFor more information about results and grade calculations, see [https://www.ocr.org.uk/students/getting-your-results/](https://www.ocr.org.uk/students/getting-your-results/)   \nQualification level UMS grade boundaries  \nTo calculate your overall qualification grade, we add the UMS for each unit to get your total UMS. We then check the total UMS against the qualification UMS grade boundaries. These do not change and are shown below:  \n\n|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  |  |  |  | Max Mark | D*2 | D2 | M2 | P2 | D1 | M1 | P1 | U |\n| Level 1/2 Cambridge National UMS 200 180 160 140 120 100 80 60 0 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Unit level raw mark and UMS grade boundaries |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| J809 Level 1/2 Cambridge National in Child Development |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  |  | Max Mark | 2* | d2 | m2 | p2 | d1 | m1 | p1 | u |\n| R057 01 Health and well-being for child development (Written Paper) |  |  |  | Raw | 70 | 48 | 43 | 37 | 31 | 26 | 22 | 18 | 0 |\n|  |  |  |  | UMS | 80 | 72 | 64 | 56 | 48 | 40 | 32 | 24 | 0 |\n| R058 A 01 |  |  | Create a safe environment and understand the nutritional needs of children from birth to five years (Moderated Upload) | Raw | 60 | 52 | 46 | 40 | 34 | 28 | 22 | 16 | 0 |\n| R058 B 02 |  |  | Create a safe environment and understand the nutritional needs of children from birth to five years (Moderated Postal) | Raw | 60 | 52 | 46 | 40 | 34 | 28 | 22 | 16 | 0 |\n|  |  |  |  | UMS | 60 | 54 | 48 | 42 | 36 | 30 | 24 | 18 | 0 |\n| R059\u003Cbr>R059 | A\u003Cbr>B | 01\u003Cbr>02 | Understand the development of a child from one to five years (Moderated Upload)\u003Cbr>Understand the development of a child from one to five years (Moderated Postal) | Raw | 60 | 52 | 46 | 40 | 34 | 28 | 22 | 16 | 0 |\n|  |  |  |  | Raw | 60 | 52 | 46 | 40 | 34 | 28 | 22 | 16 | 0 |\n|  |  |  |  | UMS | 60 | 54 | 48 | 42 | 36 | 30 | 24 | 18 | 0 |\n| J834 Level 1/2 Cambridge National in Creative iMedia |  |  |  |  | Max Mark | 2* | d2 | m2 | p2 | d1 | m1 | p1 | u |\n| R093 01 Creative iMedia in the media industry (Written Paper) |  |  |  | Raw | 70 | 57 | 51 | 43 | 35 | 29 | 23 | 17 | 0 |\n|  |  |  |  | UMS | 80 | 72 | 64 | 56 | 48 | 40 | 32 | 24 | 0 |\n| R094 A 01 Visual identity and digital graphics (Moderated Upload) |  |  |  | Raw | 50 | 45 | 40 | 35 | 30 | 25 | 20 | 15 | 0 |\n| R094 B 02 Visual identity and digital graphics (Moderated Postal) |  |  |  | Raw | 50 | 45 | 40 |","cbCaiga6txBzvWfE","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiga6txBzvWfE","pdf",273454,"English","# Cambridge Nationals unitised qualifications\n## Raw marks and uniform mark scale (UMS)\n## Grade boundaries and level thresholds\n## How to calculate the overall qualification grade\n## Unit level raw mark and UMS grade boundaries","[{\"question\":\"What does a unit mark mean in Cambridge Nationals?\",\"answer\":\"Each exam paper or coursework unit results in a unit mark, which may be referred to as a raw mark.
