GCSE chemistry aqa

Does anyone have any fun predictions for the GCSE aqa higher separate Chemistry grade boundaries
I’ve calculated a min of 150-152 but I’m genuinely so scared that the grade boundaries will be higher like 154 for a 9 like does anyone think they actually could go above 150 !? 😭

For a 9 last year it was 149/200, this year since they don't tend to go up generally more than 1/2 marks I think the grade 9 marks will be between 147-151/200. But
1. It depends on how hard/easy it was
2. How everyone on the whole has done
3. How this year's effort compares to last year's effort from students.
I got bored a couple weeks ago and watched videos on how grade boundaries and papers are made on the AQA website, so I'd look there if you want a "proper" response as there will be no definite answer until 8am on the 22nd
will this apply to most subjects (1-3 mark increase), eg further maths physics etc?
