GCSE grade boundaries

[poppydoppy]

I am totally shocked to see what the GCSE grade boundaries are in core GCSE subjects. For example in physics students only have to get 33% to get an A*, Chemistry 39% and English lit 49%

Are other exam boards like IGCSE and IB the same?

"And have a from DD1 and the girls at her super selective who worked bloody hard last year to get those "easy" A/A*s."

Why did they have to work specially hard because they are at a super selective? I would have though being in the top 2-5% often population would have made the A/As a doddle. Or is it only at comprehensives known to the Daily Mail where As are handed out like confetti?

It's actually the first line (word) of The Power Of Love by Frankie Goes To Hollywood. (Possibly with some extra i's , I didn't count)

I can change the number of i's if I want to make my comments unsearchable
