The results of last term’s modules were released today – a day into the first teaching week of this term. They are graphed here.
The grade bands are defined in % as follows:
Distinction | Pass | Fail |
---|---|---|
D5 (95-100) | P5 (70-74) | F1 (40-49) |
D4 (90-94) | P4 (65-69) | F2 (30-39) |
D3 (85-89) | P3 (60-64) | F3 (20-29) |
D2 (80-84) | P2 (55-59) | F4 (10-19) |
D1 (75-79) | P1 (50-54) | F5 (0-9) |
In Computer Systems (half-module) and Software Development 1 (full module) I scored D4, while in Database Systems (half module) I scored D3.
