The 1996 GCE A/AS-level results show that for candidates in grant-maintained schools attempting two or more GCE A/AS-level subjects, the average point score is 18.0. The average point score for such candidates in GM comprehensive schools—that is, excluding GM selective schools—is 15.9. The average point score per A/AS-level entry for GM pupils is 5.4.
