How we ranked

The list contains upper-secondary schools (gymnasier) in Västerås that have published an average grade-point score — the mean of pupils' final grades on the 20-point scale (E=10, A=20). Schools are sorted by Skolkoll score, where grade points now feed the upper-secondary result dimension. Eligibility to higher education and graduation within 3 years are shown as context columns. Teacher certification and pupil counts help you read the ranking in context.

Note: Skolverket does not publish SALSA for upper-secondary, so socio-economic adjustment isn't possible the way it is for compulsory school. Differences between schools can be partly explained by pupils' prior results and programme mix; location, pedagogical profile, programme choice and environment also play a large role.
