The statement on the other side of this form shows the grades awarded to you at the Advanced and/or the Ordinary level in each subject for which you entered. This information is sent before the issue of Certificates and the University reserves the right to correct it. This document is not a Certificate and must not be regarded as such.
Ordinary Level
At this level grades A, C and E are grades of pass in descending order of merit reading from left to right, and Grades F and H, followed by the word FAIL, denote failure.
There are no oral tests in the languages at this level.
Advanced Level
At this level grades A, B, C, D and E are grades of pass in descending order of merit, reading from left to right, and grade F, followed by the word FAIL, denotes failure.
