Is it still possible for me to get A* in 9709 Math?

Hello, I'm taking the 9709 Math.
I'm very worry about my P43(Mechanics 1) now. I think I left 2 questions and I lost about 20 marks, may be 25.
For me, this is the toughest P4 paper I've ever seen. Anyone has taken P43 also?
Let say my scores are:
P1 = 62/75
M1 = 25/50 (I'm extremely worry about this)
P3 = 72/75
M2 = 47/50

Let say the threshold for getting A* is 205 and I get 206 overall, will I still get an A*?
The scores and threshold above are theoretical.
Will my score in M1 (C or may be D) has bad effect on my overall score?
Will it be printed on the statement of results / certificate?
Anyone has the experience that get C or D in one paper and still get an A*?

Thank you.

No, you would not be able to get A* with those scores because one of the requirements for A* is an A in each module. You would need to retake the AS 'block', i.e. retake P1 and M1 together. You would not be able to keep your existing P1 score (although I'm sure you can improve on 62!).
This is based on how it was in 2013, I doubt anything has changed since then.
