									<p><a href="https://www.skillsacademy.co.za/courses/matric/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Matric</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is an important step in South Africa, as it marks the end of Grade 12 and offers opportunities for further education and careers. However, not everyone passes on their first try, and that&#8217;s completely fine. </span></p><h2><b>Understanding Matric</b></h2><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In South Africa, </span><b>matric</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> refers to the final year of high school, Grade 12, and the certificate earned after completing it. It is an important milestone that opens doors to further education and job opportunities.</span></p><h3><b>What Is A Matric Certificate?</b></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A matric certificate also known as the National Senior Certificate (NSC), shows that a student has finished high school. It is essential for applying to universities, colleges, or jobs. In South Africa, matric refers to both Grade 12 and the overall accomplishments of a student’s high school years.</span></p><h3><b>How Many Subjects Are Required In Matric?</b></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Students are required to take a minimum of seven subjects, which must include the following:</span></p><ul><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Two official languages</span></li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy</span></li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Life Orientation</span></li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Three elective subjects</span></li></ul><h3><b>How Many Subjects Do You Need To Pass?</b></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To obtain a matric certificate, you must pass at least six subjects.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br /></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">The specific requirements depend on the type of pass you aim for: Bachelor’s, Diploma, or Certificate.</span></p><h2><b style="color: var(--ast-global-color-2); font-size: 1.77778rem; font-style: inherit; background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);"> </b></h2><h2><b style="color: var(--ast-global-color-2); font-size: 1.77778rem; font-style: inherit; background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);">Matric Results</b></h2><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Matric results show if a student qualifies for further studies and what level they can pursue. Students can check their results using their ID number on government websites or through SMS services.</span></p><h3><b>Matric Results Grading System</b></h3><ul><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><b>B</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">: Shows that the person qualifies for university entry with a Bachelor&#8217;s Pass.</span></li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><b>Diploma Pass</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">: Suitable for diploma studies.</span></li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><b>Certificate Pass</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">: Qualified for certificate courses.</span></li></ul><h3><b>How Matric Results Are Calculated</b></h3><p><b>Matric </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">marks are calculated by combining school assessments (SBA) with final exam results.

<h3 class="p1"><span class="s1"><b>Why did you fail?</b></span></h3>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The first step is to analyse the situation before you can decide what to do next. So the question is, <i>why exactly did you fail Matric</i>? Here are two common reasons:</span></p>
<ul>
<li class="li1"><span class="s1"><b>It was beyond your control.</b></span></li>
</ul>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">Circumstances can suck. Illness and family issues can take their toll on your year and prevent you from excelling in many ways.</span></p>
<ul>
<li class="li1"><span class="s1"><b>You struggled.</b></span></li>
</ul>
<p class="p2"><span class="s1">It is possible that you simply had a lack of interest, or the academic struggles were too overwhelming. Or, perhaps you didn’t study as hard as you should have…</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Make sure that you are aware of <b>why you have failed</b> so that you can decide on the next best course of action. If you failed because you did not work hard enough, you will obviously need to adjust your behavior and try a bit harder. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">However, if you did not pass Matric because you missed your exams due to unfortunate or unforeseen circumstances, there are options available for you to explore.</span></p>
<h3 class="p1"><span class="s5"><b>What are your options?</b></span></h3>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So what steps can you take if you have not passed matric and you are committed to achieving your National Senior Certificate? The fact of the matter is that if you are determined to achieve something you will! As Nelson Mandela famously said, <em>“it always seems impossible, until it’s done”</em>. So get back onto your feet and have a look at what your options are.</span></p>
<h3><b>Supplementary Exams</b></h3>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">You may have failed matric, but don’t pack away your stationary and lucky shoes, you still have the option of writing a supplementary exam under the following circumstances:</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">1) If you have <strong>failed a maximum of two subjects</strong>.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">2)  If you were <strong>medically unfit</strong> to write your exams in October/November (make sure that you have evidence of this in the form of a doctor’s note).</span></p>
<p class="p4"><span class="s1">3) If you did not meet the <b>Higher Education admission requirements</b>:</span></p>
<p class="p5"><span class="s1"><i>(The Higher Education Admission requirements are a pass of 40% in three subjects, one of which must be an official language at Home Language level, and</i> <i>a pass of 30% in three other subjects.)</i></span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">4) If you had <strong>personal problems</strong> such as a death in your family during the time you should have written your October/ November exams.</span></p>
<div class="su-box su-box-style-default">
<div class="su-box-title">To Note:</div>
<div class="su-box-content su-clearfix">
<p class="p3">– The supplementary exam will be <strong>written at the school </strong>where your November exams were written or at a <strong>center designated for the supplementary exams.</strong></p>
<p class="p3">– The supplementary exams are <strong>written from 11 February to 18 March 2017</strong> (need to <strong>apply to write supplementary exams by 20 January 2017</strong>) at no additional cost.</p>
<p class="p3">– Supplementary examination results will be <strong>released on towards the end of April 2017</strong>.</p>
<p class="p3">
</div>
</div>
<h3 class="p3"><b>Re-marking or Re-checking</b></h3>
<p class="p7"><span class="s1">If you feel that your <strong>exam has been unfairly marked</strong>, and you are certain that if it were re-marked you would achieve a higher result, you can apply and pay a fee towards having your exam paper or papers re-marked.</span></p>
<ul>
<li class="li1"><span class="s1">If you are not certain that all the questions on your exam paper have been marked, you can apply to have your exam paper/ papers rechecked.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li class="li1"><span class="s1">This means that an examiner will check that all the questions have been marked and all the marks add up to the total.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li class="li1"><span class="s1">Remember that there is a deadline in which you need to have applied to have your papers remarked or rechecked </span><span class="s8">(The <strong>deadline is the 20</strong></span><strong><span class="s9"><sup>th </sup></span></strong><span class="s8"><strong>January</strong> and results are<strong> released by the 8</strong></span><strong><span class="s9"><sup>th</sup></span></strong><span class="s8"><strong> of Feb 2017</strong>).</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li class="li8"><span class="s1">The fees are <strong>R80 for re-marking</strong>, <strong>R18 for re-checking</strong> and <strong>R160 for viewing</strong> a re-checked or re-marked examination script.</span></li>
</ul>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This is an option for students who may be certain that their exams went well and felt confident about the paper. If you discover that the results do not add up or a question was left unmarked, you can apply to have the paper re-marked or re-checked.</span></p>
<p><script async="" src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script><br />

<h3 class="p1"><b>Re-do Matric</b></h3>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If you do not qualify for a supplementary exam you may need to consider re-doing the Matric year. This is a daunting option to many, since this requires you to re-do the entire year and continue to pay school fees. However, if you are determined to pass Grade 12 and get that certificate, know that at least this may be a possible option!</span></p>
<ul>
<li class="li1"><span class="s1">For students who are unable or unwilling to return to the same school, you should consider private colleges such as <a href="http://www.skillsacademy.co.za/">Skills Academy</a> which allow you to do matric equivalent courses.</span></li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

If you are having problems at home, make sure that your teachers are aware of this so that you don’t suffer when your results arrive. If you don’t understand your work, get together with your friends and figure it out before heading into the exam room.
