Hi! Is final GPA tabulated based on L1R5, or average of all subjects? Also, is 3rd lang counted?


For Science, if my girl has taken Physics & Chem this year, is this counted as 2 subjects or treated as just Science (ie, one subject)?

Is there a certain GPA that the girls are expected to get?

Thks!

Calculated on 7 subjects. Third lang can be taken as substitute for a humanities subject. Science is counted as one subject.

I believe the promotion criteria is min. GPA of 2.0 as an average of 7 subjects. And a pass is required for Philosophy and Research Studies. That's what I remember being told, anyway.

A question: does the school release the mean and median scores for each subject? When? My daughter just got some results, but we can’t judge how well (or not!) she’s done unless we have some idea of the spread of marks in the cohort. She isn’t the kind who goes around asking everyone for their grades, and we wouldn’t want her to.

In the mid-year report, they gave the median for each subject. I suppose it should be the same for year-end.

Thanks! I guess we'll just have to wait. Does RGS issue a report book or do they hand out a piece of paper? This is my daughter's first semester in school, so we don't know what to expect.
