Comparison English and Maths AS 2010/11
As seen here, in English AS there was a 100% pass rate. This means there were 100% individuals who passed from A to E. English saw a one person rewarded grade A. Moreover the higher amount of students (five) got a C.   However taking in account there were only 7 people entry.
On the other hand, a level mathematics saw a 73% pass rate. Meaning that from A to E, on 73% of individuals passed. In comparison to English, more people failed and got a U, however there were more grade B in maths then English. This trend can shows that although the results can vary to be better in maths, the reason is due to the amount of people taking that subject.

In comparison to economics, which there was only 13 students, there was a 71% pass rate. This trend is seen well than economics but due to the amount of students being less, this shows that the focus is only on a smaller amount of students, rather than a larger amount. Hence the two pass rates cannot be comparable.
