Baccalaureate Results
2013
Our 146 Brevet students outdid themselves this year, with half of
the IC students obtaining honors both at Ain Aar and at Ras Beirut.
Once again our IB results have been great, with all but one of
our students obtaining their diplomas, with averages well above
the norm. Four of our students obtained exceptional scores
above 40. Our average score of 5.40 per subject has been the
highest since we started offering the IB diploma, and so has the
mean total score of 34.
We have had exceptional Lebanese Baccalaureate results this
year with our students performing above the average of the
country in every single subject including Arabic.
All of the 93 candidates passed and 80% received cumula-
tive average scores above 12. This compares favorably with the
French Baccalaureate results, where we obtained 84% mentions
with 100% honors in the Mathematics and Sciences options.
