How does the grading system work ?

I'm taking all the three sciences.. [Chemistry | Physics | Biology]
I don't understand the grading threshold.
I'm doing paper 1, 3 and 6.
It says the maximum mark awarded for Paper 1 = 40, paper 3=80; paper 6=40
and at the bottom it says
The maximum total mark for this syllabus is 200.
40+80+40 adds up to 160.
Marks required for an A*, i.e, 151 (Considering GT of Physics for the O/N 11 session)

How will I be graded ?
151/160 = 94.4%
Seriously? 94% for an A*?

Its not like this they converted it to 200 so 151 means A* so u have to get above 151! Its easy to get it!
