Other Examinations passed by the above candidate:

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 3rd among 32 candidates from Frank Iny
School.

Note: Highest grade is 1; lowest passing grade is 6; grades 7 and 8
in the advanced level are considered a pass at the ordinary level.
In addition to the above, G. S. Shohet will be sitting
in January 1961 for the London University G.C.E. Examinations in
English language at the ordinary level.
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.
At present the above candidate 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.
Ghanem Sasson Shohet is physically and mentally quite fit.
I recommend him for admission to any University abroad as a fairly
good candidate.

Other Examinations passed by the above candidate:

1. Iraqi 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. Iraqi State Baccalaureate Examination for Intermediate
Education, in June 1959, ranking 25th 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 |
| 3 | Pure Mathematics | Ordinary | June 1960 |
| 5 | Applied Mathematics | Ordinary | June 1960 |

In addition to the above, F.Y. Aboody will be sitting in
January 1961 for the London University G.C.E. Examination in
Physics 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 F.Y. Aboody is attending the Fifth Form of
Shamash Secondary School and is making good progress. In June
1961, he will be sitting the Iraqi State Baccalaureate Examination
for Secondary School ⟦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.

Farouk Yacoob Aboody is physically and mentally quite fit.
He is supplied with this certificate at his own request.

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 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 '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 ⟦illegible⟧ rades 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 ⟦illegible⟧ ect 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.
