Notes: The above Ministry requirements represent the basic minimum standard for Quebec Secondary School graduation and do not meet the more rigorous standards required for CEGEP entrance. Students seeking direct entrance into a university outside the Province of Quebec would normally opt for the Grade 12 program following Secondary V .
Certificate-level French in Secondary V supposes previous study of French. Students beginning French in Secondary V follow a two-year program of French leading to the Quebec Secondary School Diploma and the Grade 12 certificate.
