You might want to like, you know, define what a beautiful number is and not just steal it from the IMO who made up their own definition.

Wow. I didn't realise that the cut off for a High Distinction was less than 50%. I've been getting Distinctions for the past few years and I also thought that a High Distinction was way out of reach and almost impossible for me to achieve, but this gives me a glimmer of hope.

Also, has anyone been doing practice papers for this or are you guys too busy with your trials?
