AQA A-level Economics (7136): every published series since 2017.

Method

  1. Add your marks on the papers you have sat, real or mock. A blank paper is one still to sit.
  2. Take your target grade's boundary from the latest series and subtract your marks.
  3. The rest is what the papers still to sit must bring in, never more than they are worth.
  4. The same sum on each recent year's boundary gives the range.
