Fail, Pass, Merit, Distinction
Hi People!
Just been told I have achieved merit for my programming but do not know the rough percentage yet. Does anyone know how this grade scale relates to percentages?
Thanks

I am guessing its a 2:1 so that would be around 60-70% at a rough guess. It depends on the university though, I never realised they used that system.

Hey thanks. I know! It was really annoying because nobody in the class could work it out! It's because our results are provisonal so they can't tell us the exact mark.

We have a similar system for my course... its pretty annoying especially as the grade boundaries shift so you can never work to a target mark like you can with the 1st/2:i system....

Is it for a degree course?

It depends.
Some places a merit = 70% and above one thing and a distinction = 70% in everything.
In others it equates to a 2i
In others it's 70% and above, with a distiction being 80% and above.
