Why did the A-level algorithm say no?
A big pile of &#x27;meh&#x27;. They are trying to make a statistical guess based on priors because the pandemic prevented the exams from being written. They are going to get things wrong. If they have an appeals process for things that are completely out line (e.g. a passing student getting a failing grade), then that&#x27;s the best you can hope for given the circumstances.<p>In the big picture, the good students are going to get good markers, average students are going to get average markets, and bad students will get bad markets. Again, it is what it is.
