What is a distinction in matric?

The Johannesburg-based private college Regenesys states that distinctions are awarded when students achieve 80% or higher in a specific subject, signifying high academic excellence.

Distinctions also reflect a student's dedication, intelligence, and ability to perform well under academic pressure, improving their odds of gaining admission to competitive tertiary institution programmes and getting financial assistance.

Students can achieve distinctions by doing the following:

  • Applying effective study habits: For example, taking notes and revisiting topics.
  • Focusing on difficult subjects: Spend more time on subjects you may find challenging.
  • Seeking support: Ask educators and peers for help or join study groups.
  • Practising time management: Balance time between all your subjects.
  • Practising stress management: Take regular breaks, eat healthily, and maintain your mental and physical well-being.

The benefits of achieving distinctions include:

  1. University admissions.
  2. Scholarships and bursaries.
  3. Career opportunities.
