Michael Bhopaul remains the Guyanese student with the largest number of Grade I passes—16—at the Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE), Shanomae Milling of St Roses High School has been able to secure a total of 17 Grade I and II passes over the two years of the programme.
Milling obtained Grade Ones in 12 of the 17 units she wrote.
A press statement from the Ministry of Education yesterday sought to “apologise for the anomaly” which saw Milling excluded from the list of top performers made public. It went on to state that Milling was the 2019 top student for the examination in Guyana. Milling earned 11 passes at this year’s examination, including nine Grade I passes and two Grade II passes, while Bhopaul earned eight Grade I passes.
