3. 240 credits! Each degree in the department is made up of 16 modules each worth 15 “credits” You have completed 8 modules in your 2 nd year and will do 8 more this year 1 st year marks do not contribute to your degree The year 2 modules have a weighting of 40% The year 3 modules have a weighting of 60% To pass a module you need a mark ≥ 40%....... …..but a mark of 35% will be accepted as a pass if your overall average mark is ≥ 40% (“pass for credit”)

4. To progress from Year 2 to Year 3 You need to have a weighted average mark of ≥ 40% with no marks less than 35% If you meet the criteria to progress you cannot re-sit modules to try to improve your overall average score.

5. At June 2013 Calculate a weighted average mark based on 40% of the year 2 average mark and 60% of the year 3 average mark

6. Getting a first A weighted average mark of ≥ 70% with no more than 2 failed modules OR 8 modules with a mark of ≥ 70% and a weighted average mark of ≥ 67% with no more than 2 fails Meeting the above criteria with 3 fails will get a 2.1

7. Getting a 2.1 A weighted average mark of ≥ 60% with no more than 2 failed modules OR 8 modules with a mark of ≥ 60% and a weighted average mark of ≥ 57% with no more than 2 fails Meeting the above criteria with 3 fails will get a 2.2

8. Getting a 2.2 A weighted average mark of ≥ 50% with no more than 2 failed modules OR 8 modules with a mark of ≥ 50% and a weighted average mark of ≥ 47% with no more than 2 fails Meeting the above criteria with 3 fails will get a 3 rd class degree

9. Getting a 3rd A weighted average mark of ≥ 40%

10. Getting a pass A weighted average mark of ≥ 35%
