Yes, but you can apply for re-assessment or something like that. Talk to SFAS.

The appeal didn't do much for me last year, but good luck anyway

How Students are Selected

Only eligible students who apply for QEIIA4T will be considered for potential selection. The eligible student(s) who graduate with the highest marks (excluding marks from summer school courses taken in 2010) at their high school will be selected. The number of scholarships awarded is based on the number of scholarships assigned to that high school. The share of scholarships given out at each eligible Ontario high school will reflect the number of students in the graduating years both at the specific school as well as in the province as a whole.

So, if your school has, say, 300 people in your graduating class, and the government has alotted 4 scholarships for your school, then the four people with the top grades get it--so, the OP had a 92 average, but there were probably people at the school with higher averages that took up all of the alotted scholarships. The above blurb doesn't make it seem like financial need has any bearing on whether or not you get the scholarship, only on how much money you're awarded should you get it.
