Questions people ask
What grade is 190 out of 288 in AQA A-level Psychology?
Under the June 2026 boundaries, 190 was a B: the A needed 205. It would also have been a B in 2023, 2024 and 2025, and an A in June 2022, when transitional grading set the A at 177.
What percentage do you need for an A* in A-level Psychology?
In June 2026 an A* needed 229 out of 288, about 80%, and an A needed 205, about 71%. AQA sets marks, not percentages, and they change every year.
Do I need the boundary on every paper?
No. Your grade comes from your total out of 288, so a strong Paper 1 can make up for a weaker Paper 3. AQA's paper-level boundaries are notional guides only.
When will the 2027 boundaries be published?
AQA publishes A-level grade boundaries on results day. The 2027 series is the first on the revised specification, so there is nothing to compare until then, and this tool does not estimate one.

How we work this out
What it does
The marks out of 288 each grade needed in every June series from 2022 to 2026, the grade your three papers would have been, and what you need on the papers you have left.
AQA A-level Psychology 7182: the qualification boundaries out of 288 (Papers 1, 2 and 3, each out of 96) for the June series 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. Paper-level boundaries are notional and are not used.
Method
- Every boundary is taken from AQA's published grade boundary PDF for that June series, which is linked beside the answer.
- Your total is Paper 1 plus Paper 2 plus Paper 3, with no scaling, because each paper counts once towards the 288.
- With all three papers entered, the grade is the highest one whose boundary your total meets, worked out separately for each year.
- With a paper left blank, the marks needed are the boundary minus your total so far, compared with the marks the blank papers offer (96 each). A grade needing more than that is flagged as out of reach. A blank paper is treated as not yet sat, never as zero.
