What Is Adult Matric?
Not everyone has had the opportunity to complete their schooling to matric level and if they have had the opportunity, there are many people who were not able to complete their matric due to circumstances beyond their control or who just didn’t have the right support. Often you find that several years later you are in a situation where you need to have a matric certificate in order to advance your career, find a job or obtain a promotion.
If this is the case and you are over the age of 21, there are a number of opportunities for you to obtain that much-needed matric certificate. Having said that, if you do not already possess a grade 9 certificate, many organizations that offer adult matric will require you to take ABET classes to write the grade 9 exams before studying further for your matric. The matric exams typically include material from grades 10 to 12. That is why it is important to leave yourself enough time to study 3 years of work before writing the matric exam.
What is Another Name for Adult Matric?
Adult matric is also known as the Amended Senior Certificate (ASC).
What is the age requirement for adult matric registration?
You have to be older than 21 years to write the adult matric exam (the amended senior certificate). There’s nothing stopping you preparing for the matric exam by studying. Remember that the matric exam takes into account years 10 to 12 of studying, so you may have quite a bit of catching up to do. If you are wanting to write the adult matric exam, you need to make sure you have at least grade 9 and are older than 21 years when you write the actual exam.
