The Ministry of Education released the official rankings for the top-performing students across the republic. In the scientific-mathematics division (new system), top achievers included Hassanah Amr Saad Ahmed Mahrous from Al-Hawamdiya Girls Secondary School taking first place with a score of 319.5, followed by Mohab Mohamed Youssef Hussein from Qoba Language Private Secondary School in second place with 319.5 points.

System Differences and University Coordination

Educational authorities noted structural differences between the old and new Thanaweya Amma frameworks. The maximum possible score under the new system is 320 total marks, whereas the old system reaches a total of 410 marks. Certain subjects, such as philosophy, logic, psychology, and second foreign languages, factored into the old system’s aggregate score, while under the new system, the second foreign language serves strictly as a pass-or-fail requirement and is excluded from total calculations. Additionally, geology constitutes a core subject in the old framework but is absent from the new curriculum.

Preliminary indicators suggested that no student under the new system achieved the absolute maximum score of 320 points. Officials confirmed that the university admission coordination office will account for these structural variations between the old and new systems to preserve fairness during the upcoming university enrollment process.
