Do you know what the pass marks are for grade one music clarinet?

Question

My step sister is taking grade one and we would like to know what the requirements to pass are. In piano its 150 marks, because Ive taken my grade 1 & 2 (Pass and Merit) with 100 being a pass (I think will have to look at the cirtificate when I get home) but we would really like to know the boundarys and pass marks etc, for Grade One Clarinet. x

Answer 1

I haven't got the foggiest. I've got a Merit AND Distinction in Bongos.

Answer 2

It depends on what music board you step sister is doing her exam with. With ABRSM which is the main music board, a pass is 100, a merit is 120 and a distinction is 130. The exams are out of 150. If she is not with ABRSM then I would imagine that the exam board would have similar pass marks.

Most boards set the pass mark at 100, usually they don't fail you at grade one to encourgae you to continue.
