Each KCSE subject is graded on the basis of a twelve-point scale, with 12 points being the highest score.

Grade boundaries are determined by an Awards committee composed of experts selected from the various levels within the education sector.

No mean grade appears if the candidate sits for less than 7 subjects or where one or more subjects are cancelled due to an examination irregularity or where the entry requirements have not been met.

The letter Z indicates that entry requirements have not been met.

P means your grade is pending for several reasons according to KNEC.
