The results of the 2026 Πανελλήνιες exams were announced on June 25, revealing a significant drop in student performance across several subjects. Approximately 89,000 candidates competed for 68,788 university places in Greece. According to the Ministry of Education's statistics, many students struggled, with half of the participants scoring below the passing mark of 10 in subjects such as Ancient Greek, Mathematics, History, and Economics.
Particularly concerning was the performance in Ancient Greek, where 55.67% of students failed to meet the minimum score. While some subjects, like Physics, reported higher achievement levels, overall, there were fewer students achieving top marks compared to previous years. This trend is being interpreted as a clear indication of a challenge faced by this year's cohort of high school graduates. Following the announcement of the results, students are now focusing on calculating their scores as they aim to secure places in higher education institutions.
