The table shows HKEAA's own cumulative figures (the share at each level or above). The chart shows each level on its own: the difference between neighbouring columns.
Subjects attract different students, so a high 5** rate doesn't mean a subject is easy.
Cut-offs
We don't publish verified cut-offs for this subject yet. HKEAA doesn't release cut-offs, and we only show a figure when two separate collections of candidate reports agree.
