Other entry options (237 rows)

Cambridge's documents also list other entry options, for example combinations that mix variants, A2-only options (Cambridge's note: options ending in J) and the 2026 staged-assessment routes. They are here as Cambridge prints them. A dash under Max means the document does not state the maximum for that row.

How to read a grade threshold table

Find your row by components. The component numbers are the papers you sat: the first digit is the paper, the second is the variant. So 12, 22, 33, 42, 52 is Paper 1 variant 2, Paper 2 variant 2, Paper 3 variant 3, Paper 4 variant 2 and Paper 5 variant 2.
Syllabus thresholds are totals after weighting. Cambridge describes them as the minimum marks for each grade, set from the weighted thresholds of the individual components. The weighted maximum is 260 for the A Level and 130 for AS Level.
A* only exists for the whole A Level. Cambridge's documents say there is no A* on an individual component, and the AS Level rows have no A* column. The 2026 documents print AS grades in lower case (a to e).
More than one route to a grade. Where an entry option offers more than one route, Cambridge awards the best grade available from the combination of components the candidate took.

Where these numbers come from

Every number on this page is from Cambridge International's grade threshold documents for Cambridge International AS & A Level Physics (9702), one for each series, listed below. For more information the documents point to cambridgeinternational.org/alevel. If a number here ever disagrees with Cambridge's document, the document is right: use the “Spotted a mistake?” button to tell me.
