No-one does. All the papers are marked first then the boundaries set to give the 'right' proportion of grades.

This years boundaries are confirmed to be between 2019 and 2021 grade boundaries! Though, I’d still use 2019 boundaries in past paper practice to be safe hehe

NO they are not - the award of grades will be in that proportion but this tells us nothing about the grade boundaries. Please don't post wrong information.

“As we return to summer exams, in 2022 exam boards will set the grade boundaries based on a profile that reflects a midpoint between 2021 and pre-pandemic grading”

Yes but that refers to the grade PROFILE not the actual grade boundaries - read the article

Thank you all for your help. It's so confusing. So a guide is non-existence? :s-smilie:

Shall I just aim for the 2019 grade boundaries to be safe?

No, just do the best you can - we do know more top grades will be awarded than in 2019 and fewer than 2021.

"But the grade boundaries for each specification will be set by the senior examiners, after they have reviewed the work produced by students."

No one knows, just aim as high as you can. The proportion of grades has been said to fall between 2019&2021 but that gives no indication to what the boundaries will be as it's dependent on how the cohort do.
