The same subject on other boards, June 2025
Raw marks are not comparable between boards, because the maximum marks differ. The percentage of the maximum is the only fair comparison — and it is usually closer than people expect.

- In June 2025, French — Higher: 114 out of 240; French — Foundation: 151 out of 240.

- No. Boards reset boundaries after every series so a grade means the same thing even when a paper is harder or easier than intended. Past boundaries tell you the likely range, not the answer.
