I would actually expect an A result, simply due to the sheer volume of potential options.
It's a huge assumption based on over a decade of professional experience in the design industry, and teaching at the one of the top 4 degree-granting art-schools in the country where I get to see what type of talent comes out.

What are your assumptions based on? Gee-whiz optimism?

You may get a fantastic result (from a recent grad though, not from someone "trying to get into the industry")...but the odds are not in your favor. Why does every design contest here have come down to "students getting a chance to impress"? A license plate is one of the bigger public-facing pieces in terms of giving the province an identity...why does it not deserve real professionals?

I think we should let the oilsands be run by toddlers. They have great experience playing with Tonka trucks. You just do NOT know!
