High School Admission 2024
After the appeals phase and the publication of final results, the high school admission process will follow.
For students who submitted appeals, every additional tenth of a point in the final grade can significantly impact high school admission. This is particularly important in 2024, as the score obtained in the National Evaluation will be the only one considered for calculating the high school admission average. Grades obtained by students in grades V-VIII will no longer be included in the admission average calculation but will become one of the tiebreaker criteria in cases of identical admission averages.
