As the title, really. Are the marks in maths exams (first year) at the UoE standardised? I had a horrible exam, and just about passed it. If that was due to moderation, then I think I've got some work to do....
They must have been. I completely bombed the DE exam this year and had less than 40% average for my assignment marks for it and somehow came out with a C. Eh?
Probably - I know our marks are standardised - we need something like 70% in our multiple choice questions because this is standardised down to 60% (not unreasonably, seeing as a monkey could get 20% in multiple choice!)

Well, I must've done a more succesful job of bombing the exam than you, then. I came out with D, and my assignments were mostly in the 80% range. It's such a pain in the ass, because all my other grades are firsts or 2.1s
