2006 Examination Results Facts
Dubai
College
students once again excelled in this year’s GCSE, GCE AS Level and GCE A
Level examinations. The Year 12 AS Level results were very promising with
several students producing first class results that bode well for next year.
The GCE A Level results were truly outstanding with a 100% pass rate A to D.
The A to B pass rate, which forms the basis for comparison of
UK
league tables, was 84.4%, placing the College 78th in the top 350 UK
Independent Schools. Ten students
achieved four grade As with a further twenty three gaining straight As in three
subjects. The results have enabled the students to take up offers at some of the
very best universities in the
UK
and US including
Cambridge
, LSE,
Columbia
and
Berkeley
.
Year 11 students produced an equally impressive set of results achieving a pass
rate of 100% at GCSE which included a 77.5% pass rate at A*and A grades.
Bernard Pereira, Abeer Mian, Ishika Das, Samar Kazranian, Noor Khan and
Jenny Adamson gained A* grades in every subject. (In comparison the UK average
was 19.1%).
Several individual students also
received commendations from the exam boards for outstanding achievement. From
over 114,000 candidates Marie Al Rustom (10CJ), Lauren Bruffaerts (11JS),
Anushka Chugani (11BV) and Nupur Mohan (11CA) each gained one of the top five
marks in their French GCSE paper. This
achievement made even more remarkable in that they were sitting the papers at
least one year earlier and congratulations go to the rest of the
“accelerated” French group who all achieved the top A* grade.
In addition one of the highlights of this year’s results was the
performance of Bethan Jones (12TD) who also received a commendation award for
achieving one of the top five marks out of an entry of nearly 380,000 candidates
for her English Literature GCSE examination.
