Question Paper grades, what is normal?

I noticed that some graded B/W papers are coded as (S) for special for grade 2 and (N) for normal with grade 3 papers. I always thought that grade 2 is considered to be normal.
Has something changed in recent years to the paper standards?

Not that I know of (but then I'm not the world's foremost authority on
the subject).

What kinds of papers were those?
