Hello ,
I just wanted to ask what's the possibility of getting an a* after getting an a in As level ? I don't know my component grades because my school didn't allow any students to look at it , I just looked for chemistry and it was a a a for 11 21 and 31 . is it really difficult to get an a* even after such grades ??

You do realize that A is the maximum grade one can get in components, and its also the highest grade at AS-Level? There are no A*'s at AS Level.

Yeah yeah , I was taking about A2. I meant is it easier to get an a* in A2 if you have such components , I've heard people going from b to an a* !!
My a2 chemistry paper 4 was like my experience in as chemistry paper 2 !!
