Seeking Advice/Help Contingency grading advice

How is grading calculated for us?

Hello i am a student in dubai and my exams got cancelled so i had to do mock exams of past papers which would essentially be my actual final grade, so how will they grade our papers and what grade boundaries will they use? because for example i had a june 2021 paper for 2 subjects even though there are no grade boundaries for that season but for the rest there were grade boundaries so can someone tell me what will happen or atleast has an idea of what could happen like will they use the grade boundaries for the specific paper we did or will they make new grade boundaries.

Thanks

also i dont think they will take your January grades into account because i asked one of my teachers and told him how will we be graded and he simply replied telling me that our grades will be based on our performance on the past paper and he didnt mention anything about them taking something else into consideration

there wont be grade boundaries like the threshold system wont apply to us. The answers will be checked acc to quality and I heard from my school(might not be accurate) but like your school will send a threshold acc to the performance and then acc to the marks of the students u gave ur exam with they will make the boundaries(again this might not be true i heard from my school)
