WJEC A-level Further Maths grade boundaries 2025: six units, 600 marks

WJEC A-level Further Maths grade boundaries June 2025

Further Maths uses WJEC's 600 scale. The AS part is three units of 80, then A2 Unit 4 is worth 210, and a candidate adds either Unit 5 or Unit 6, each worth 150, as the specification sets out. The A level A is 480, as for Maths.

Raw marks per unit, 2025

These are the 2025 raw marks from the grade converter, with the 2026 change at A in the last column.

Adding up a candidate

With raw marks of 43, 40, 36, 85 and 50 across Units 1 to 5, the 2025 converter gives 59, 57, 54, 159, 101, a total of 430. That is a B, 50 short of A at 480. The A2 units contribute 260, so an A* (324) is not close.

Why Unit 4 stands out

A Unit 4 candidate needed 36 raw marks for an E and 91 for an A, a gap of 55. No other unit in our six subjects spans so many raw marks, because the paper is worth 210 uniform marks.

Senedd Research reports 29.5% of A level grades at A* or A in Wales in 2025.

The A level counts one of Unit 5 and Unit 6, so only one of their raw boundaries applies to you. In 2025 the E for Unit 5 was 28 and for Unit 6 was 24. Look at the unit you are entered for and ignore the other one when you plan.

Reading the 2025 table

• The AS units were level. Each needed 47 raw marks for an A, though their lower grades differed.
• Unit 5 and Unit 6 were a mark apart. An A was 60 and 59.
• Unit 3 had the lowest E. It needed 14 raw marks.
