PLUS: Top 10% National Merit Pathway (Standard System - Unchanged)
The TOP 10% of ALL students NATIONWIDE at each level (Pre-A1, A1, A2, B1, B2) automatically qualify for National Finals based on their performance.
(If your students are in the top 10% nationwide at their level, they will also qualify via merit in addition to your guaranteed places)
How The System Works
- TIER 1: Merit by Level (Unchanged) Top 10% of all students per COUNTRY within each level qualify automatically. Your strongest students can qualify this way regardless of school quotas.
- TIER 2: School Guaranteed Places (8 for you) Every school gets guaranteed representation. Nominate your highest-scoring students (who haven't already qualified via merit) to fill these places. Submit within 3 days of Discovery results.
- TIER 3: Rescue Cards (2 for you) YOU choose which students get rescue cards. Use for students who had bad test days or special circumstances. Submit within 3 days.
