The educational expert, Dr. Seddik Afifi, Head of Taiba Educational Institutions, and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Merit University said that the drop in high school totals this year, and consequently the decrease in college admissions totals, comes because the examinations and correction process were organized in a more accurate way than before. Dr. Seddik Afifi added, saying: Praise be to God. The students are now getting the score they deserve and it doesn't really make sense what was happening that half of the students were achieving 100% while we see them as graduates at a level that doesn't reflect that score.
