FINAL mark for MX1 (1 Viewer)

[Greninja340]

Say two people get the exact same mark in externals and internals for mx1, but one of them does maths extension 2 and the other mx1. If the finals mark is an odd number out of 100 for the mx2 person (e.g. 95/100) would would the mx1 person get out of 50 (i.e is it 47 or 48/50)

I think you meant to say 47 or 48

AFAIK it gets rounded up, so 48

Extension 2 and Extension 1 Mathematics are always given out of 50 from my understanding.

Just ask your school teacher

Yeah

I don't think extension 2 would be out of 50. Because IIRC, if you do 4u maths, ext 2 counts for 2 units and ext 1 counts for 2 units. But if you do 3u maths, ext 1 only counts for 1 unit.
(Correct me if I am wrong)

Yeah, my bad, Extension 2 is always out of 100.

Extension 2 and Extension 1 Mathematics are always given out of 50 from my understanding.

If you do 3 units of Maths you have
Mathematics Advanced - X/100
Mathematics Extension 1 - Y/50

If you do 4 units of Maths you have
Mathematics Extension 1 - X/100
Mathematics Extension 2 - Y/100

Basically, each unit is reported as out of 50 marks.

Extension units are reported as Bands in the E1 to E4 range, so scores are judged out of 50. They would then be doubled for when Extension 1 becomes a 2 unit course when doing Extension 2 as well. Your mark would also be dependent on the actual, unrounded mark. So you could still be in a situation where the 1 unit mark is 47.4 rounded to 47 but the 2 unit mark is 94.8 rounded to 95; or you could have 47.1 rounded to 47 and 94.2 rounded to 94; or you could have 47.5 rounded to 48, and 95 as a whole mark.
