Dubai, UAE; August 21, 2023:  A-level results are out, and Raffles International School (RIS) students have performed brilliantly once again. More than a quarter of the Class of 2023 (26%) achieved A*-A grades, and an impressive 13% achieved A* grades. The school achieved outstanding results in Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and Physics results, with over 75% of students achieving either an A*, A or B grade. As many as 69% of the 35-student strong cohort achieved A*-C grade rate.  
An overwhelming majority have thus secured their admissions in their first choice of university. RIS students secured full scholarships to study Computer Science at NYU Abu Dhabi and biochemistry at UAE University. Students also secured scholarships to pursue undergraduate studies at Manchester University, Newcastle University, and Kings College, London.


One of the school’s top performers Abdul Rehman Rizwan, who achieved 4 A* grades, said: “I am so relieved and happy with my grades. I would like to say a huge thank you to my family and the school for all the support. It’s a real testament to what you can achieve when you set high standards for yourself. I have now confirmed my first choice University of Manchester where I will be studying Theoretical Physics.”
