BC Grade 12 students are not required to write optional provincial exams for admission or for course prerequisite purposes. If you choose to write an optional exam, we will consider the higher of the school mark or the blended grade (the combination of the school and provincial exam mark). For courses with required provincial exams, like English 12, we will use only the final blended grade for admission and prerequisite purposes. If you are in the Adult Graduation Program, you must write the provincial exam for English 12 if you want to use the course for admission or prerequisite purposes.
