FAQs

What does the document provide for the June 2023 examination?

It provides grade thresholds for Cambridge IGCSE First Language English (Oral Endorsement) (0500), including minimum raw marks by grade and overall thresholds based on weighted component combinations.

Are there component-level grade thresholds for A*?

No. Grade A* does not exist at the level of an individual component; A* is defined only through overall thresholds set by combinations of components.

How are overall grade boundaries determined?

Overall thresholds are set using options that specify the maximum mark after weighting and the combination of components (e.g., AR (A1) uses components 03, 11), with resulting boundary values for A*, A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.
