Tunisian Baccalaureate - Mathematics

The Tunisian Baccalaureate (Examen National du Baccalauréat) is a national standardized test established in 1891. Mathematics is one of the seven specialities offered. The exam is typically held in early June, with results released in late June. A score of 15/20 (or 19, depending on the university and program) is generally required for admission to university mathematics programs.

In 2020, a student, Ahmed Kallala, achieved a score of 20.15/20, exceeding the perfect score. More recently, in 2024, three students achieved a perfect score of 20/20 in the mathematics section. The highest score was 20.15, achieved by Ramez Messak.

While the specific subjects within the Mathematics speciality are not detailed in the available information, discussions on Reddit suggest that the program includes calculus, linear algebra, probability, numerical analysis, and possibly topics like conic sections, differential equations, statistics, and spatial geometry. There have also been discussions regarding changes to the program, with some chapters potentially being removed.

The Tunisian mathematics curriculum is considered challenging and above average compared to other countries. Students often utilize private lessons to prepare for the exam.
