Do I fail if i dont pass finals? (3 Viewers)

[Shawny]

for commerce faculty
and im talking more specifcally about Acct1501

if i fail the acct final(60%) weighting, do i fail?
i heard that u fail regardless of ur average, if you DONT PASS the finals

or is it that they take what u have in ur finals and add it to ur other assesments and then give u a mark out of 100 and if u fail to go above 49, they fail u or PC u.

which is true?

In most subjects you must pass the finals to pass the course, regardless of previous marks. I'll leave it to Minai to confirm this for Accounting ...

Do they scale the final exam mark? Or just the final mark ?

whats the point of assesments if theyll just be using the final exam? apart from the whole torture thing...

 

[Exeter]

coz u can pass the final and still fail the course
so it makes sure you kinda give the WHOLE course a bit of a fair go, instead of going hard at the start and slackin off or vice versa

 

[Shawny]

still waiting for the authoratative word from minai
