Other Examinations passed by the above candidate:

1 - Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Primary Education
in June 1955. This examination is, in standard, equivalent
roughly to the Common Entrance Examination of the English
School or to grade 7 of the American School.

2 - Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Intermediate
Education in June 1959, ranking 23rd among 32 candidates
from Frank Iny School.

3 - London University General Certificate of Education Examination
in the following subjects:-

| Grade Obtained | Subject | Level | Date |
| 8 | Classical Arabic (Arabic was originally sat at (A) level). | Ordinary | June 1960 |
| 2 | Pure Mathematics | Ordinary | June 1960 |

In addition to the above, E.F.E. Mashaal will be sitting in
January 1961 for the London University G.C.E. Examinations
in Physics and in Applied Mathematics at the ordinary level.

Prior to his joining Frank Iny Intermediate School
in October 1955, the above candidate did six years of
Primary Schooling at Adel Primary School in Baghdad.

While in Frank Iny School and Shamash Secondary School,
both of which are under my administration, the above candidate
was always diligent and of good character.

At present E.F.E. Mashaal is attending the Fifth Form
of Shamash Secondary School and is making good progress.
In June 1961 he will be sitting for the Iraq State
Baccalaureate Examination for Secondary Education, Scientific
Section. To judge by his Secondary School record, he should
be able to pass this examination satisfactorily in due course.
He will then be eligible for entry into any higher institute
of University standard in Iraq.

E.F.E. Mashaal is physically and mentally quite fit.
He is supplied with this certificate at his own request.

Notes

This document contains inform⟦ation⟧ which is sent out in advance of the issue of Certifi⟦cates⟧, and while every effort has been made to ensure that the contents are accurate, the University reserves the right to make corrections. It is not a Certificate, and must not be regarded as such.

The results overleaf are indicated by grades which are to be interpreted as follows:
Grades 1 to 6 are grades of pass arranged in descending order of merit from Grade 1; Grades 7 to 9 are grades of failure similarly arranged. To help unsuccessful candidates to assess their future prospects Grades 7 to 9 are so arranged that 7 indicates that the margin of failure was narrow, 8 that the margin was wider and 9 that the candidate did not obtain more than about one-third of the marks for the subject as a whole.

An O in the Grade column indicates that a candidate was entered for the subject but has been marked 'A B S E N T'.

If a candidate has failed in a subject because of poor English or inferior presentation of the work, a separate notification to this effect will be sent.

No further information about performance in the examination will be supplied by the University. The decisions of the Examiners, which have been reached after the most careful consideration, are final.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS GOVERNING THE AWARD OF CERTIFICATES IN CERTAIN AREAS

Private Candidates sitting for the examination in Aden, Argentina, Kenya, Mauritius, Somali Republic, Tanganyika and Zanzibar are required to pass in a prescribed minimum number of subjects in order to qualify for the award of a certificate. If you are one of these candidates and have not qualified for a certificate the word 'FAILED' will appear in the space immediately below your Candidate Number. If there is nothing in the space it indicates that you have qualified for a certificate. If, however, you possess one of the necessary exempting qualifications and are eligible for a certificate in respect of any subjects passed, the word 'FAILED' will not appear even if you have not passed in any subjects.

Only subjects in which you have obtained Grades 1 to 6 (inclusive) will appear on the certificate, if you have qualified for one. In areas where a satisfactory standard of attainment, which may be below the normal pass grades, is accepted in English Language, this subject will not appear on the certificate unless Grade 6 or a better Grade has been obtained in it.

Certificates

Certificates for successful candidates will be sent to the Overseas Authority for distribution as soon as possible after the publication of these results. Candidates who have passed in subjects at both levels will receive two certificates, one for Ordinary level subjects and another for Advanced.

This document contains information which is sent out in advance of the issue of Certi⟦ficates⟧, and while every effort has
been made to ensure that the contents are accurate, the University reserves the right to make corrections. It is not a

If a candidate has failed in a subject because of poor English or inferior presentation of the work a separate notification to this effect will be sent.
No further information about performance in the examination will be supplied by the University. The decisions of the Examiners, which have been
reached after the most careful consideration, are final.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS GOVERNING THE AWARD OF CERTIFICATES IN CERTAIN AREAS

Private Candidates sitting for the examination in Aden, Argentina, Kenya, Mauritius, Somali Republic, Tanganyika and Zanzibar are required to pass in a
prescribed minimum number of subjects in order to qualify for the award of a certificate. If you are one of these candidates and have not qualified
for a certificate the word 'FAILED' will appear in the space immediately below your Candidate Number. If there is nothing in the space it
indicates that you have qualified for a certificate. If, however, you possess one of the necessary exempting qualifications and are eligible for a certificate
in respect of any subjects passed, the word 'FAILED' will not appear even if you have not passed in any subjects.

Certificates

Certificates for successful candidates will be sent to the Overseas Authority for distribution as soon as possible after the publication of these results.
Candidates who have passed in subjects at both levels will receive two certificates, one for Ordinary level subjects and another for Advanced.

Other Examinations passed by the above candidate:
1. Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Primary Education, in June 1956 passing with distinction and ranking 2nd among 35 candidates of Menahem Daniel Primary School in Baghdad. This Examination is, in standard, equivalent roughly to the Common Entrance Examination of the English School or to Grade 7 of the American School.
2. Certificat d'Etudes Primaires Examination, conducted by the French Embassy, Baghdad in May 1957, ranking 24th among 44 candidates from Frank Iny School.
3. Brevet Elementaire Examination in French, Literary Section, conducted by the French Embassy, Baghdad, in May 1959, ranking 12th among 17 candidates from Frank Iny School.
4. Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Intermediate Education, in June 1959, ranking 8th among 32 candidates from Frank Iny School.
5. Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Secondary Education, Scientific Section, in June 1961, ranking 9th among 25 candidates from Shamash Secondary School.
6. London University General Certificate of Education Examination in the following subjects:

| Grade Obtained | Subject | Level | Date |
| 8 | Classical Arabic (Arabic was originally sat at (A) Level) | Ordinary | June 1960 |
| 4 | Physics | Ordinary | June 1961 |
| 4 | Pure Mathematics | Ordinary | June 196⟦1⟧ |

Prior to his joining Frank Iny Intermediate School in October 1956, the above candidate did six years of Primary schooling at Menahem Daniel Primary School which is known to be one of the good schools in Baghdad.
While in Frank Iny School and Shamash Secondary School, both of which are under my administration, the above candidate was always diligent and of good character.
Having passed the Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination in June 1961, Eddie Victor Elia Shaoul is now eligible for entry into any higher Institute of University standard in Iraq. I understand that this candidate is at present attending the first year of Al Hikmah University and is making good progress.
Eddie Victor Elia Shaoul is physically and mentally quite fit. I recommend him for admission to any University abroad as a fairly good candidate.

Notes

This document contains information which is sent out in advance of the issue of Certificates, and while every effort has been made to ensure that the contents are accurate, the University reserves the right to make corrections. It is not a Certificate, and must not be regarded as such.
The results overleaf are indicated by grades which are to be interpreted as follows:
Grades 1 to 6 are grades of pass arranged in descending order of merit from Grade 1; Grades 7 to 9 are grades of failure similarly arranged. To help un-successful candidates to assess their future prospects Grades 7 to 9 are so arranged that 7 indicates that the margin of failure was narrow, 8 that the margin was wider and 9 that the candidate did not obtain more than about one-third of the marks for the subject as a whole.
An O in the Grade column indicates that a candidate was entered for the subject but has been marked 'ABSENT'.
In French, German, Spanish, Italian and Russian, two columns of grades are given. The left-hand one represents the result obtained in the subject as a whole, including the oral test, and the second the result in the oral examination on its own. There are four oral grades also arranged in descending order of merit; Grades 1, 2 and 3 are pass grades and Grade 4 indicates a failure. Failure in the oral test does not necessarily indicate failure in the subject as a whole.
If a candidate has failed in a subject because of poor English or inferior presentation of the work, a separate notification to this effect will be sent.
No further information about performance in the examination will be supplied by the University. The decisions of the Examiners, which have been reached after the most careful consideration, are final.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS GOVERNING THE AWARD OF CERTIFICATES IN CERTAIN AREAS

Private Candidates sitting for the examination in Aden, Argentina, Hong Kong, Kenya, Mauritius, Somali Republic and Zanzibar are required to pass in a prescribed minimum number of subjects in order to qualify for the award of a certificate. If you are one of these candidates and have not qualified for a certificate the word 'FAILED' will appear in the space immediately below your Candidate Number. If there is nothing in the space it indicates that you have qualified for a certificate. If, however, you possess one of the necessary exempting qualifications and are eligible for a certificate in respect of any subjects passed, the word 'FAILED' will not appear even if you have not passed in any subjects.
Only subjects in which you have obtained Grades 1 to 6 (inclusive) will appear on the certificate, if you have qualified for one. In areas where a satisfactory standard of attainment, which may be below the normal pass grades, is accepted in English Language, this subject will not appear on the certificate unless Grade 6 or a better Grade has been obtained in it.

Certificates

Certificates for successful candidates will be sent to the Overseas Authority for distribution as soon as possible after the publication of these results. Candidates who have passed in subjects at both levels will receive two certificates, one for Ordinary level subjects and another for Advanced.
