Am I cooked?

Hey , you aren’t cooked haha. 40 is a pass. For a 2:1 you need 60% and for a 1st you need 70% I believe. Try and aim to improve your grades to 50 and above and you’ll want your third class honours no problem, your only two percent off and that is a very small gain going into your final year, ask for help as much as you can it’ll be small tweaks that you need to make

To figure out your second year grade overall, work out 30% of the mark awarded for a particular module (ie 0.3 x mark) then add up the 6 marks and divide by 6 to get the average across the 6 modules you took in year 2. That will give you a figure of 14.4%. That means that out of a possible 30% you could have been awarded (if you had achieved 100% in each module) you have actually banked 14.4%.
You can then see what marks you need in your 3rd year to get a 2.2. 2.1, 1st.
•
If you were to get an average mark of 40% across your 3rd year modules then your mark for year 3 would be 40% x 0.7 = 28%. Thus you would come out with 14.4 + 28 = 42.4 (a third)
•
Ditto for average of 50% - 14.4 + 35 = 49.4 (third)
•
Ditto for average of 60% - 14.4 + 42 = 56.4 (2.2)
•
Ditto for average of 70% - 14.4 + 49 = 63.4 (2.1)
•
Ditto for average of 80% - 14.4 + 56 = 70.4 (1st)
In summary:
•
You need to get 51% average across all year 3 modules to scrape a 2.2 - perfectly possible.
•
You would need to get an average of 65% across all year 3 modules to scrape a 2.1 - tough.
•
You would need to achieve an average of 80% across all year 3 modules to scrape a first - tall order.
Realistically, based on your year 2 performance, expect to get a solid 2.2. No shame in that.
