Best PMR results in four years; 30,863 score straight As

PETALING JAYA: A total of 30,863 candidates scored straight As in the 2010 Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR) examination, a 0.65% increase from last year and the best PMR results in the past four years.

Education director-general Datuk Abdul Ghafar Mahmud said, however, that the results for candidates in the special category (kids with disabilites) saw a slight decline.

DG said the ministry would conduct an analysis to look into the causes.
