Being a topper means you gotta be at the top. :)

Most probably 100%.

Post by: cashem'up on February 17, 2010, 02:54:46 pm: AS level..............

Post by: thepokerpro on March 01, 2010, 04:21:00 pm: it is percentile ... so obviously you have to be in the 99th percentile to be the topper.

If it is percentile .. you cant have 100 .. because then it is going out of the range ,, if you get what i mean..

congrats anyway. ;D

So 96% is not good enough, usually 98-100 get the award.

Post by: saifalan on March 02, 2010, 05:16:31 pm: So see, it doesnot have to be a 98 or 99. U can even get one in 80% if ur percentage is the highest whole over the world.

Saiful bhayia, it was 95%

There's something I don't understand though. First in Mauritius for Add Maths normally is 100%, or considering the competition, it can't be < 99%, and for the world... ???

Post by: $tyli$h Executive on March 02, 2010, 06:18:36 pm: First of all, Congratulations to Saiful Bhayia. He is a brilliant student. He got A in law for A level, which is REALLY difficult and rare.

I got lucky. Alhamdulillah for that. I secretly targeted Computer Studies for the world highest. Didnt tell anyone in the fear of being laughed at. But I got something better than that.

Post by: saifalan on March 02, 2010, 08:25:41 pm: Fooh I have got nothing in my head. I got very lucky, Alhamdulillah. Thats it. The only reason an A is rare Law is that most of the idiots study it. All the brilliants ones are busy with science and math.

Post by: $tyli$h Executive on March 03, 2010, 11:19:39 am: According to my teacher 95% in economics is a VERY high percentage for AS. Each year the world highest roams around 95 or 96.

Advanced congratulations ima_shah, for getting world highest in economics!
