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 186 + Pre-U D1–D3 71 + IB Higher Level 7–6 73 = 330 of 390 entries
A* or equiv.: A level A* 82 + Pre-U D1–D2 54 + IB Higher Level 7 46 = 182 of 390 entries
A*–B or equiv.: A level A*–B 206 + Pre-U D1–M2 89 + IB Higher Level 7–5 78 = 373 of 390 entries
