ILLUSTRATION: A = 5, B = 4, C = 3, D = 2, E = 1, F = 0. ( a point is added to a student whose result is without F) . For example, a student who scores C in all three subject is calculated as c + c + c + 1 which is interpreted to be 3+3+3+1 = 10 points.
The highest point in any A/level exam is calculated as A + A + A + 1 which is interpreted as 5+5+5+1 = 16 points and with this point admission is guaranteed in any university.
