Statistics on the 2021-2023 Scholarship Exam Student Mark Distributions
Nina Graham made this Official Information request to New Zealand Qualifications Authority
The request was successful.
From: Nina Graham
Dear New Zealand Qualifications Authority,
I would like to obtain details on the distribution of students and their marks for the following scholarships over the years 2021, 2022 and 2023: Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, Statistics.
I would like to see how many students got each possible mark out of the paper total (e.g. how many students got 24/32, 25/32, etc.).
This request is similar to a request made to NZQA in 2021 by Albert but I would like to see the updated data from the 2021-2023 papers.
Yours faithfully,
Nina Graham

Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 of 3
April 2024 seeking the following information:
I would like to obtain details on the distribution of students
and their marks for the following scholarships over the years 2021, 2022
and 2023: Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, Statistics.
I would like to see how many students got each possible mark
out of the paper total (e.g. how many students got 24/32, 25/32, etc.).
This request is similar to a request made to NZQA in 2021 by
Albert but I would like to see the updated data from the 2021-2023 papers.
You can expect to receive a response to your request on or before 2 May
2024. You will be contacted again if there is a likelihood that this
timeframe cannot be met.
As you may know requests for official information become official
information once received. As part of the processing of requests for
official information, NZQA may need to consult with relevant third
parties. During the consultation, a third party may ask for the identity
of the individual/organisation requesting the information. If you are an
individual making a request, please advise us whether or not you would
have an objection to disclosing your identity if a third party asks for
your identity, and the reasons for your objection. If you are an
individual making a request on behalf of an organisation please advise us
both whether you personally have an objection to disclosing your identity,
and the reasons for your objection, as well as any objection to
identifying the organisation, together with reasons. NZQA will consider
your reasons and whether they fit with any withholding grounds under the
Privacy Act 2020 or the Official Information Act 1982.
Requests from an organisation for information about the organisation will
be processed under Part 4 of the Official Information Act.
Please note that it is our policy to proactively release where possible.
We will let you know when we respond, if we intend to publish it. Your
name and contact details will be removed before publication. Please
contact us if you have any questions about that.
In some circumstances after scoping a request, NZQA may decide to charge
for making the requested information available. If this is the case, we
will write to you again with details and seek confirmation you wanted to
proceed on that basis.
For any enquiries about your request, please contact
[1][email address].
If you are dissatisfied with our response, you have the right, under
section 28(3) of the Official Information Act 1982, to lodge a complaint
with the Office of the Ombudsman at [2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz. You
can also telephone 0800 802 502 or write to the Ombudsman at PO Box 10152,
Wellington, 6143.
