How are Edexcel International A levels marked and graded?
Edexcel International A levels are modular qualifications made up of four or six separate units. You can complete individual units at different times throughout your course.
Usually, you’ll do half of the units in your first year of college or sixth form – this is your International AS level. You’ll then complete the remaining units in your second year of college or sixth form – this is your International A2.
You’ll be issued a UMS mark and grade for each unit and then when you complete the course you’ll ‘cash in’ to get an overall International AS or International A level grade.
- International AS units and cash-ins are graded A to E.
- International A2 units are graded A to E, but we publish the theoretical A* boundary.
- International A Level cash-ins are graded A* to E.
If you don't get enough marks to pass with an E you'll be awarded a U, which means 'unclassified'.
Frequently asked questions
When will you send my results to UCAS?
If you are completing your International A levels this autumn and are a UCAS applicant, we'll send your results to UCAS the day before results day. They collate your Pearson results with any other results you have from other awarding organisations and send these to the universities and colleges from which you've had offers.
