Result for Grade One Exam

I was pleasantly informed by the piano school that Coco managed a Merit for her Grade One piano, although like all mothers, I had hoped that she could clinch a Distinction.

The conversation went like this:
Receptionist,"你的女儿考得很好嘞!" (Your daughter did very well for her piano exam!)
Me," ... ... (Is it a Distinction?)"
Receptionist,"她考到Merit." (She got a Merit.)
Me," ... ... (Huh ... like that is 'very well' ah?)"

But I have to give Coco the credit for indeed doing very well for her first piano exam, considering the limited time she had - she started learning her exam pieces way too late, compared to most people who had the luxury of spending just about a year to learn them.

Well done, Coco!
