I expected a B in Chemistry and got an A.
I expected a B (although to some extent I was hoping for an A) in English and got an A*.

I don't know but I'll post the breakup I was expecting:

- I was totally unsure of about 10-15 MCQs in my MCQ paper.
- I messed up a few questions in the theory paper and probably lost around 15 or so marks there.
- My ATP wasn't that great either. I made many silly mistakes that probably added up to about 8 marks maybe.

So it didn't go that great and I was kind of worried I'd get a B. I don't know my actual percentage because it was never released but I think I can safely saw I probably managed to get a low A.

What? Citation? A* has always been at 90+, hasn't it?

well there has been much and much discussion about this topic

well from November 2010, the A* was raised to 95% +
but it is not the raw percentage but the PERCENTILE, means relative marking.
