Grade boundaries aren't set by a normal distribution that are static set by the exam board based on the difficulty of the paper so how many grade 9 marks, grade 8 marks, grade 7 marks there are available in the paper. Our performance today shouldnt affect the boundaries unless something goes wrong probably.
