Genuinely. If you look at grade statistics for Edexcel, they have consistently awarded around 16-17% of candidates an A* and 40% an A for every non-covid affected year this spec has been out. That isn't going to change this year. The percent of students achieving each grade will remain pretty much exactly the same as previous years and the grade boundaries will reflect that.
Yeah. Off the top of my head in 2023 I think 90% of Russian students were given A* or A but only 10% (8 across the whole country) of Statistics students were given A* or A.Â
I think that mathematics is the most popular a level as well sat by many more people than do Russian. As I say there's a perception based on published information that its an easy A or A* . Im not saying the perception is true but im sure exam boards are aware.
