Unlike 10 A1 scorers of previous years, this girl's 10 A1s do
not mean anything much.
Simply because the top 1000+ students have been taken out of the
competition, thanks to the thru-train programme. And because of
this, the moderation of results is such that people who would
otherwise score an A2 in previous years will now score an A1.
The true test of academic ability will come at the A-Levels in 2
years time, when the cream of the cohort take the exams together
with everyone else.
