The tag on each question is the band an average examined test-taker tends to top out at, not the ceiling. A Band 7+ question is one where reaching Band 7 is plausible with a disciplined essay. Band 8 is still on the table. The difficulty rating reflects how unforgiving the question is to vague claims, off-position arguments, or weak examples.
