English translation:RANK/5 - PERCENTILE
Explanation:
The French may be difficult to read, but it would say "R/5" (not R/S). This is a peer comparison ranking system. The last two columns on any Québec secondary school (high school) transcript refer to the student's ranking out of 5 (Rank/5) and their compararitive percentile (PERCENTILE).
