SPM new Grading System

Since last year, the government has implemented the new grading system for SPM. An A+ grade is considered a super distinction.  A+ was the highest possible grade, which meant students would have scored more than 90% in the subject (see chart).

A total of 7,987 students obtained a combination of A+, A and A- in all the subjects taken in the SPM last year, adding that 214 students from government schools and 41 students who were either from private schools or private candidates, obtained A+ in all subjects taken.

Students are now graded according to A+, A, A-, B+, B, C+, C, D, E and G compared to previously when the grades were from 1A to 9G.
