jellybean26 coventry university rounds up 59.5 to 60 and 69.5 to 70. they also round up 58 to 60 and 68 to 70 if a student didnt have any reassessment that year. you should check your university handbook. i really think they will round it up. best of luck.



Thank you you for replying to me, I hope this is the case as all the extra effort would be for nothing. Thanks

Hey! If you type in to google (too lazy to copy and paste the link for you) Hull university rounding marks up, the first link should be something.

If the mark is .45 then it gets rounded up, you will be getting a first :smile:

They also require you to have 60 modules at marks above the higher classification.

yeah first year doesn't count anyway?


First year may not count towards a degree but many employers will ask the uni. for a transcript of first year marks which makes first year results much more important than many students realise.

Hey Jellybean26, I'm wondering if you've got first class as I am now in this same situation as you were before (CovUni).

Thanks

Congratulations to you! (although it's been a year now :biggrin:)
I'm currently having an average of 69.92. It is such a torture now to wait for the results to be finalised. You must be glad it was over and it turned out the way you wanted. :redface:

I got the same score as my friend. He was at the same uni as me, but on a different course. His was rounded up to a first, mine was not. So it depends ultimately on your course

Which uni were you at?
I'm sure you'll be able to convinced your lecturer/tutor the next time you meet him/her.

Totally depends on your uni and your course. They probably would though.
