Note on papers used:

There is a small proportion of questions that are duplicated across different time zones (possibly to ensure
consistency when deciding UMS conversion scores for the different time zones)
Paper 21 keeps all questions, then for questions duplicated in only P22 and P23, the version from P23 is deleted.
So P23 loses duplicates first and should end up the smallest, then P22.

June 2016 was the first year using this new format, where P1 was replaced for the Extended candidates with Paper 2, the only substnatial change, and grade
boundaries dropped by nearly 10% for the A*, emphasising how important understanding the exam techniques and patterns in Paper 2 really is!
The higher boundaries are usually for
• November students (possibly a result of more students in the Northern Hemisphere taking a resit)
• March, which is only carried out in India

Multiple Choice Paper Topic Frequency has largely remained
stable from 2002 to 20017

The questions, however, are totally different between Core and Extended papers. Being able to do well in a Core
paper (i.e. get 100%) means that you are still only working at a C grade level!!!
