1. CALCULATION OF YOUR YEAR MARK AND FINAL MARK
Assignment 01 counts 20% of your year mark and assignment 02 counts 80%. The
year mark contributes 20% towards your final mark, and the examination mark
contributes 80%.
Please note that you do NOT have to receive a year mark of 40% to gain admission
to the examination, as your active participation in the learning process automatically
gives you admission to the examination.
You need to achieve a final mark of 50% in order to pass this subject/module,
and a final mark of 45% to qualify for the supplementary examination.
Please note: If you obtain an examination mark of less than 40% your year mark
will not be considered for your final mark. This means that you will not qualify
for the supplementary examination if you obtain less than 40% in the
examination.
Calculation of your year mark
Example
Assignment 01: 70%
Assignment 02: 50%
Year mark: (70 x 20%) + (50 x 80%)
= 14 + 40
= 54%
Calculation of your final mark
Example
Year mark: 54%
Examination mark: 60%
Final mark: (54 x 20%) + (60 x 80%)
= 10,8 + 48
= 58,8
= 59%
