The grade 11 end-of-year exams are now finished. It has been an intense week, but the students should have a well deserved break this weekend. On June 2nd, the students will receive a report card with their mock exam grades and when the reports are released the students will also receive their first projected grades. This is an important moment of reflection and consideration, perhaps as well of celebration.

Besides an indicator of where they stand, these projected grades should be used for considering university options. Explore university options that are within two points (plus or minus) of this projection. Aspire for improvement, but stay realistic about the projections.
