Is 49,63% if I need 50% in exam pass or not

Will you please clarify: is 49,63% in exam ( if pass is 50%) PASS OR NOT in UK universities?

It depends on individual departmental degree programme regulations.

In my dept it would fail, but elsewhere it would not

It will depend on how exactly your university calculates marks. At some, your 49.63% would be rounded to the nearest whole number before being reported -- so your 49.63% would be recorded as 50% and hence be considered a pass.

But other universities might round down, or might take the exact figure -- and as that's less than 50% you'd be classed as failing the exam.
