Student Ranking
Ranking of students based on final marks is used in three different ways. They are: high honors
and honors, ranking for post-secondary applications and scholarships and ranking for the
Governor General's Award.
The honors and high honors standing is an average of the marks earned in all courses taken
in a semester. Honours is from 75% - 84.9%. High Honours is 85% and over.
The post secondary ranking is used to determine the rank of the students who are eligible
to apply to Universities. Current Grade 11 students and all subsequent potential graduates will be
ranked based on their marks in all courses that could be used for entrance to UNB taken in Grade
11 and the first semester of Grade 12. Enriched level one classes in which a student has an 85% or
greater will result in 0.3 of one per-cent being added to the students' average. Although all students
are given a rank in relation to their graduating class, it is approximately the top ten for whom this is
most important.
Each University does their own ranking for scholarship purposes but they do want to know
who our top students are.
The Governor General's Award for 2002 will be determined by the top average in all
courses taken in the student's grade 12 year. This award in 2003 and each subsequent year will be
determined by the student's average on all courses taken in Grade 11 and 12.
