he's referring to raw marks. So after they're aligned, they'll be roughly 90. It depends on how hard this year's paper is though.

It is generally ~78%, but it changes slightly depending on the difficulty of the test

A friend of mine knows a statistician working for the BOS this year, and was told that the likely cut off for 2u, would be ~78-85 ish. BUT, it does vary each year.
