Step 1: Calculate your Z Score
Your marks are only the first signal. Estimate your Z Score so you can compare realistic government, private, diploma, and career routes without guessing.
What your Z Score can mean
| Estimated Z Score | What to do next |
|---|---|
| 1.8+ | Compare competitive state university routes and keep scholarship documents ready |
| 1.2 to 1.8 | Build ambitious and realistic course shortlists by stream and district |
| 0.6 to 1.2 | Compare related degrees, private options, diplomas, and foundation routes |
| Below 0.6 or failed subjects | Do not panic; review foundation, HND, repeat, and career-first options |
