In these instances the scaled mark grade boundaries are the same as the raw mark grade boundaries.  \nIn some specifications a unit consists of two components (eg Mathematics unit MS1A which comprises components MS/SS1A/W and MS/SS1A/C) . Each component then contributes a specific weight to the overall unit mark and scaling factors are applied to the individual component marks to ensure that each component carries the correct weighting. The grade A and E boundaries are set at component level and these boundaries are then scaled and added to provide grade A and E boundaries for the unit as a whole. The grade B, C and D boundaries are determined by interpolation at a unit level and are not set for the constituent components. Because of the order in which rounding takes place, the component boundaries described in this document for these multi-component units should be considered as notional as sometimes the sum of the scaled component boundaries may differ from the unit boundary. For grading purposes a candidate’s overall unit mark is compared to the overall unit boundaries as supplied in the results documentation.  \nUniform mark grade boundaries can be found in Appendix A of the Uniform Marks Leaflet For further information, [contact](contact Research@aqa.org.uk)[ ](contact Research@aqa.org.uk)[Research@aqa.org.uk](contact Research@aqa.org.uk).  \nPublished 12 March 2009  \nCopyright © 2009 AQA and its licensors.
