TAC Student Success at the University of Waterloo Exams
TAC students continue their successful track record with their performance at the annual Pascal, Cayley, Fermat (PCF) and Fryer, Galois, and Hypatia (FGH) exams organized by University of Waterloo in Canada.
74 of 100 TAC students who participated in the first exam, the PCF, were eligible to receive a certificate of excellence.
In addition, Beren Bal (grade 9), Ali Arda Taka, Naz Kurtuluş (grade 10), and Aldemir Konuk (grade 11) were awarded medals for their distinctive performance.
We are happy to share that TAC’s success in the second exam, FGH, was even higher. As the school, we placed 8th in Fryer exam, 2nd in Galois exam and 3rd in Hypatia exam among all schools participating in the exam from outside Canada, based on the team score.
31 out of 35 TAC exam takers were awarded a certificate of excellence. Among them, Buğra Esen (grade 9) was awarded a medal as one of the top 12 candidates, and in 10th grade, Cenk Sağlam was awarded a medal as one of the top 6 candidates from outside of Canada in the 1st group.
In 11th grade, Kaan Erman was presented a medal for being one of the top four students in the 1st group, achieving the perfect score of 40.
We congratulate our students again and thank the educators who contributed to this success.

Final ÖZDEBİR Nationwide Mock Exam before the YKS
The 25th YKS mock exam (ÖZDEBİR TURKEY WIDE - FINAL PRACTICE) organized by TAC’s Turkish University Preparation Department was administered to TAC’s seniors on 2-3 June.
In this final nationwide mock exam before the actual University Placement exam (YKS) on 18-19 June 2022, our students had the opportunity to check their performance among all candidates.
With the belief that a rich exam practice coupled with a strong teaching and learning environment would contribute to high exam scores, students in every grade level are supported by mock exams.
We are planning to give two more internal TYT and two more AYT mock exams to seniors until the actual YKS exam and are looking forward to seeing successful results after the YKS exam on 18-19 June.
