All the three papers were very easy, especially P1. So, the curve should be high!

I think you misunderstood me. I want the threshold to be high, so that there is more competition ;)

Of course I am not sure. I was talking about IGCSE in general, usually the grade thresholds are low in all subjects.
Insha'Allah we all will get the A* :)

Not really. In maths, they are +170 (usually 175). Same for sociology and English.
It all depends on how good people do. Good luck.
