Top state exams results
Since the foundation of Zlatarski International School in 1995, over 1,400 students have graduated succesfully from the school with excellent and very good results in the national programme and state matriculation exams. State matriculation exams were introduced in 2008 and Zlatarski International School is very proud to have such a long tradition of excellent results. This list includes the top students at Zlatarski International School, who have achieved the highest results in the National States Exams: Maturi. Scores above 5.50 (out of maximum 6.00) are considered excellent and scores above 5.00 are very good, sufficient for entry to many selective university programmes. Maximum scores of 6.00 (out of 6.00) in the national state exams are very difficult to achieve and only the top students in Bulgaria manage to achieve such results. To date, Zlatarski International School has more than 65 maximum scores of 6.00 (out of 6.00) in the national state exams. Each year a large percentage of our students achieve results above 5.50, which guarantees them places in some of the most competitive universities in the world.
