4.2 UJ awards merit bursaries to deserving students according to the admission points score (APS) based on their matric results.
The total APS is calculated by adding the APS for only seven subjects as follows:
- Pass percentage of the candidate’s SIX best subjects with Life Orientation as the seventh subject
- For all subjects (except Life Orientation) the percentages scored in the NSC final examination are used to calculate the APS
- For Life Orientation the percentage scored is divided by two and then rounded up to the nearest 10%.
TABLE 5 below shows the APS. TABLE 6 below shows the merit bursary value awarded as a percentage of the total tuition costs payable.

Calculate the percentage bursary value that Takahiro will receive if she qualifies for a merit bursary. (6)
