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 450 + Pre-U D1–D3 58 = 508 of 573 entries
  • A* or equiv.: A level A* 270 + Pre-U D1–D2 37 = 307 of 573 entries
  • A*–B or equiv.: A level A*–B 498 + Pre-U D1–M2 59 = 557 of 573 entries
