What is the points system for Cambridge AICE now that the A* grade has been introduced?

The A* grade was introduced in 2010.  A* is a full grade above A2 (and therefore half a grade above A1). There is no grade A* at Cambridge International AS Level.

The Cambridge AICE points system for Cambridge International A Level is:

 A*     140

 A       120

 B       100

 C       80

 D       60

 E       40

The Cambridge AICE points system for Cambridge International AS Level is:

 A*     n/a

 A       60

 B       50

 C       40

 D       30

 E       20

140 points will be awarded for an A*, but the number of Cambridge AICE points will be capped at 360.

The advantages of this are that it reflects the value of A* compared to A2, the maximum stays at 360, and six Cambridge International AS Levels have the same maximum score available as three Cambridge International A Levels.
