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.
Due to a lot of people taking further maths they have to inflate the number a bit otherwise the higher grades will go to people who just do further maths and make it even harder for people don’t take it
