What equivalence to A levels do the terms ‘Distinction’, ‘Highly Commended’ and ‘Achieved’ imply?

An overall ‘Distinction‘ in the NZCSE is broadly equivalent to ‘A’ grades at A level, with pupils usually Excelling in at least three specialist subjects.
A ‘Highly Commended‘ is broadly equivalent to ‘B’ grades at A level, although pupils can still achieve Excellence (or ‘A’) grades  in particular subjects.
An ‘Achieved‘ overall, is broadly equivalent to C grades at A levels, although as with ‘Highly Commended’, pupils may still achieve Excellence grades in particular specialisms.
