Hey guys, just trying to share some thoughts here and see what I can do as well as others who are in a similar position.
At the moment I have a 69.3% overall with the no detriment policy in place which only removes 1 of my modules from the second semester.
My grades for this current year are:
First semester: 54 (total fail), 61, 75
Second semester (where no detriment policy applies): 62 (removed), 78,72, 80+80 (dissertation, bc it is worth 30 credits)
This year average: 72.5
City University has a 0.5% policy, which at this point I obviously do not qualify for. However, as little as 2 extra points on my disso 80 --> 82 (weighted as x2 = 4 points in reality) would qualify me for a first-class degree rising my average to 69.6.
However, that is unlikely and neither do they have a borderline policy. Is there anything to be done at all?
