How we built it

The number of entries at or above the band, across every exam system, divided by all the entries. We never average two percentages.

  • A*–A or equiv.: A level A*–A 634 + Pre-U D1–D3 134 = 768 of 909 entries
  • A* or equiv.: A level A* 420 + Pre-U D1–D2 98 = 518 of 909 entries
  • A*–B or equiv.: A level A*–B 723 + Pre-U D1–M2 148 = 871 of 909 entries
