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 500–505 + Pre-U D1–D3 192–193 = 692–698 of 759 entries (91.2–92.0%: the school’s rounding leaves this much room)
A* or equiv.: A level A* 290–295 + Pre-U D1–D2 132–133 = 422–428 of 759 entries (55.6–56.4%: the school’s rounding leaves this much room)
A*–B or equiv.: A level A*–B 539–543 + Pre-U D1–M2 192–207 = 731–750 of 759 entries
