This past June Mikylo Odut got 90 percent on his grade ten flute exam resulting in a top award from the Royal Conservatory of Music.  He says this medal is from his exam that he completed in June and he knew he got a 90 percent on the exam and that’s first class honours with distinction category but recently he got an email telling him he got a gold medal basically meaning he got the highest mark in his region of Canada in this particular exam.

The Conservatory explains gold medals are awarded each academic year to exam candidates who have obtained the highest mark for their level, discipline and region while meeting all the necessary requirements.
