• In South Africa, "checking metric results" refers to the process of finding out the results of the National Senior Certificate (NSC) exam, which is taken at the end of the final year of high school

• The metric results are important as they determine the student's eligibility for admission to tertiary institutions such as universities, colleges, or vocational schools. Students who pass the NSC exam with high enough grades may be eligible for scholarships or bursaries, while those who do not pass may need to repeat the exam or consider other options for further education or training.

Please explain what are other uses of obtaining this document/certificate.
e.g. Birth Certificate can be used as proof of identity.
