This means all the assessment takes place at the end of the course. Linear qualifications are made up of a number of separate exams or non-exam assessment (coursework) called ‘components’.  \nThe mark students get on each exam paper or non-exam assessment will be the 'component mark' . There isn't a grade for each component – just a mark. This is sometimes called a ‘raw mark' .  \nIn most cases, we just add the component raw marks together to get the 'total mark' . For a few qualifications, some components are worth more than the others so we have to work this out first.  \nEach component contributes a certain percentage to the total qualification mark. In most cases, this contribution is equal – but not always. We use ‘weighting factors’ to make sure each component contributes the right amount towards the total mark. We get the total mark by multiplying the raw marks by the weighting factor and then adding these marks together. We then check the total mark against the qualification grade boundaries to get the qualification grade. The qualification grade is the final result and what will appear on the certificate.  \nWe know it’s useful to see how students did in each component so we also publish component grade boundaries. These show what the grade would be if we gave out grades for components.  \n‘Grades’ at component level don’t automatically add up to the same grade at qualification level.  \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)  \n\n| GCSE Ancient History |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  |  |  | Max Mark | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | u |\n| J198 | 01 | Greece and Persia | Raw | 105 | 87 | 78 | 70 | 62 | 54 | 47 | 37 | 27 | 18 | 0 |\n| J198 | 02 | Rome and its neighbours | Raw | 105 | 87 | 79 | 70 | 61 | 52 | 43 | 34 | 25 | 15 | 0 |\n| J198 |  |  | Overall | 210 | 174 | 157 | 140 | 123 | 106 | 90 | 71 | 52 | 33 | 0 |\n|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| GCSE Art and Design |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n|  |  |  |  | Max Mark | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | u |\n| J170 | 01 | Art, Craft and Design: Portfolio-Visiting Moderation | Raw | 120 | 112 | 105 | 98 | 87 | 77 | 67 | 49 | 31 | 13 | 0 |\n| J170 | 02 | Art, Craft and Design: Externally set task | Raw | 80 | 75 | 70 | 65 | 59 | 52 | 45 | 33 | 22 | 11 | 0 |\n| J170 |  |  | Overall | 200 | 187 | 175 | 163 | 146 | 129 | 112 | 82 | 53 | 24 | 0 |\n| J171 | 01 | Fine Art: Portfolio-Visiting Moderation | Raw | 120 | 112 | 105 | 98 | 87 | 77 | 67 | 49 | 31 | 13 | 0 |\n| J171 | 02 | Fine Art: Externally set task | Raw | 80 | 75 | 70 | 65 | 59 | 52 | 45 | 33 | 22 | 11 | 0 |\n| J171 |  |  | Overall | 200 | 187 | 175 | 163 | 146 | 129 | 112 | 82 | 53 | 24 | 0 |\n| J172 | 01 | Graphic Communication: Portfolio-Visiting Moderation | Raw | 120 | 112 | 105 | 98 | 87 | 77 | 67 | 49 | 31 | 13 | 0 |\n| J172 | 02 | Graphic Communication: Externally set task | Raw | 80 | 75 | 70 | 65 | 59 | 52 | 45 | 33 | 22 | 11 | 0 |\n| J172 |  |  | Overall | 200 | 187 | 175 | 163 | 146 | 129 | 112 | 82 | 53 | 24 | 0 |\n| J173 | 01 | Photography: Portfolio-Visiting Moderation | Raw | 120 | 112 | 105 | 98 | 87 | 77 | 67 | 49 | 31 | 13 | 0 |\n| J173 | 02 | Photography: Externally set task | Raw | 80 | 75 | 70 | 65 | 59 | 52 | 45 | 33 | 22 | 11 | 0 |\n| J173 |  |  | Overall | 200 | 187 | 175 | 163 | 146 | 129 | 112 | 82 | 53 | 24 | 0 |\n| J174 | 01 | Textile Design: Portfolio-Visiting Moderation | Raw | 120 | 112 | 105 | 98 | 87 | 77 | 67 | 49 | 31 | 13 | 0 |\n| J174 | 02 | Textile Design: Externally set task | Raw | 80 | 75 | 70 | 65 | 59 | 52 | 45 | 33 | 22 | 11 | 0 |\n| J174 |  |  | Overall | 200 | 187 | 175 | 163 | 146 | 129 | ","cbCaieHin3cNbKhG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieHin3cNbKhG","pdf",534488,"English","# Overview of GCSE linear qualifications\n## Component marks and raw marks\n## Total marks, weighting factors, and grade boundaries\n## Component grade boundaries vs qualification grades","[{\"question\":\"How are GCSE qualification grades calculated for linear qualifications?\",\"answer\":\"Component raw marks are combined to form a total mark, using weighting factors when components have different importance.
