The reason they bunch them together is because they have overly restrictive mark schemes and there are a lot of accessible questions and a lot of difficult questions, which pushes most marks into the middle.
But it's not good, they should have a range of question difficulty to spread boundaries out.

In my English Lit exam (OCR), I have to get 55/60 (raw marks) for an A. Highest boundary I've seen for English in years. Extremely p*ssed.

THIS!!! It's the highest English boundaries I've seen, having checked past boundaries. Very upset (to put it politely).
Is TSR acting weird for anyone else??

I've passed this thread on. Earlier today, the development team launched an update and asked us to feed anything back to them. :smile:
