Covid-19: Universities in UAE reshape admissions process for pupils who couldn’t take exams
Universities in the UAE have overhauled their admissions process following the widespread cancellation of secondary school exams.
Campuses are now acquiring data on other predictors of academic success, such as mock grades, performance and extracurricular activities.
The cancellation of all Grade 12 CBSE, iGCSEs and A-Level exams in the UAE this summer means pupils will be graded by teachers, based on their coursework and school performance over the past three years.
