Those who achieve these scores are amongst an elite group as only 5 per cent of students worldwide achieve this level.

“We particularly congratulate Christopher North who achieved a brilliant 43 points.

“He will go on to study Economics at Warwick. Other students who exceeded 40 points were Frances Livera and Matthew Bennion. Frances is headed for York to study Chemistry and Matthew will go on to Imperial College, London to study Aeronautical Engineering.
