Eduqas A-level grade boundaries 2025: the marks for A* to E

Eduqas A-level grade boundaries June 2025

Every number here comes from Eduqas's own file, Eduqas GCE A Level Grade Points, June 2025, which was last updated on 13 August 2025, the day before A-level results day. Each boundary is the lowest total mark that earns the grade. Eduqas A-levels are linear, so you sit every component in the same summer series and the total across all of them decides the grade.

Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Science

Each subject has its own guide with the mark for every component and the 2024 figures beside them: Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Science. For the papers themselves, see our Eduqas A-level Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Science guides.

Every other Eduqas A-level subject

The same document covers the rest of the Eduqas A-level list. Art and Design and Design and Technology are shown once each because their routes share identical boundaries.

Does Eduqas offer A-level Maths?

No. Eduqas's qualifications list has no A-level Mathematics or Further Mathematics, and neither appears in the June 2025 grade points. If you are looking for A-level Maths boundaries in England, they come from AQA, Edexcel or OCR. Our A-level Maths guide compares the boards.

How your marks become an A-level grade

Add up your marks from every component, using the weighting Eduqas gives each one, and then find the highest boundary your total reaches. A worked example, with made-up marks, in Biology and Computer Science:

• Biology. 70 on Component 1, 78 on Component 2 and 69 on Component 3 makes 217 out of 300. That is above 203 (A) and below 230 (A*), so the grade is an A, 13 marks short of an A*.
• Computer Science. The three components carry weights of 2, 2 and 1, so raw marks of 62, 58 and 71 become 124, 116 and 71, a total of 311 out of 500. That clears 289 (B) and falls short of 347 (A), so it is a B.

A total that exactly equals a boundary earns that grade. In Biology, 142 marks is a C, not a D.

How 2025 compares with 2024

Eduqas published the June 2024 figures in its 2024 document. Here are the top boundaries and the pass mark at E in both years:

Biology moved most: A* went up 16 marks, from 214 to 230, and A went up 20. As a share of the total, that is an A* at 71% in 2024 and 77% in 2025. Chemistry barely moved, with A* at 216 then 215. Physics and Computer Science rose by 4 and 10 marks at A*.

Why the marks move from year to year

Eduqas explains that boundaries are set after the awarding process and released on results day. Senior examiners look at how the year's students performed against earlier years, then read sample scripts near the possible boundaries before recommending the final marks. A higher boundary usually means an easier paper, not a harder grade, so a Biology A* at 230 is not more impressive than one at 214.

The file also gives notional boundaries for each component. Eduqas calls them a guide for centres, not official grades, and says they may not add up to the overall boundary where marks are scaled. Your grade is worked out from the total only.

What the boundaries mean for your revision

• Think in shares. An A in these four subjects needed between 62% and 73% of the marks in 2025. That is a more useful target than a raw mark.
• Leave a buffer. Boundaries moved by up to 20 marks between 2024 and 2025, so aim a few marks above the grade you need.
• Do not chase a component. A weak Paper 1 can be covered by a strong Paper 3, because only the total counts.

Estimate your grade from today's paper

Sit today's paper for your subject on our daily papers: Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Computer Science. It is a short timed paper of 8 questions and 25 to 35 marks, not an Eduqas paper. Mark it, turn the result into a share of the total, then read across the table above. Our predicted grades guide explains how to treat a run of results, and A-level grades explained covers what each grade means for university.
