How the figure is calculated

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 697 + Pre-U D1–D3 49 = 746 of 930 entries
  • A* or equiv.: A level A* 380 + Pre-U D1–D2 37 = 417 of 930 entries
  • A*–B or equiv.: A level A*–B 829 + Pre-U D1–M2 58 = 887 of 930 entries
