G.E.S.
The process for entering courses at University also requires a G.E.S (Guaranteed Entry Score).
 
There are a number of points required between 120 – 180 which depends on the course and the University (see links below). Your top 80 credits are taken (no more than 24 per subject) and given a score depending on the level attained.
 
Excellence – 4 points per credit
Merit – 3 points per credit
Achieved- 2 points per credit
 
These are then totaled for your point score.
