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: 110 out of 280; French — Foundation: 171 out of 280.
