    I was thinking the same, but it is possible that he had an interview with the extern the other day and that's how he found out.
    I'm still sceptical, anyways.

    It would probably depends on the dept you are in, I'm in Applied Social Studies and if I had failed any of my exams I would have been informed by now, especially as the results for the exam board had to be uploaded by the 4th so they would have known the previous week what the story was.

    On further investigation (i.e. asking another friend in the same class), he did get his results. As did the other friend.
    Wish my department was that efficient!

    Eish... Results don't think I want them! Know one or two subjects that I may have failed. Just hope its true that the results had to be uploaded by now so if I failed anything (miracle if I didn't) then I would have been informed by now. Know a few got a re-sit for an exam so it's just the waiting game now :p

    Friday week. That's /counts/ 11 days away, still.
    Until then, it's all up in the air.

    Argh, it's so frustrating that I have as many credits riding on this semester's 2 exams as I did on last semester's 7 exams. Stupid department.

    Friday Week?! :eek: I don't mind not doing great but I would love if when they go through your results and a big fail flag goes up they would let you know. I understand that's not logistical or possible but hey I can dream..:rolleyes:

    Personally, I've never understood why there's three weeks between the final exam board and the results being released, but that's the way it works, and always has done.
    I'm sure one of the hacks could come up with an explanation.

    In the mean time, I shall continue to pretend to write a thesis, and spend inordinate amounts of time on facebook. =)

    If I failed one module and was able to compensate does anybody know how long it would take for the college to confirm my compensation? Just wondering if it's automatic or takes hours/days/weeks

    Wait what? I assume you get them early cause you're post-grad?

    Also, is 69% bad?

    I got them early 'cuz I asked my university in France for them. And 69 is excellent, but I'd rather have the extra .8% and get a distinction!
    SO CLOSE!

    I thought it was 69.5 was the cutoff. But in any case, I've still got a thesis to weigh in on my results so I guess it's not that big a deal.

    Not sure if it differs from uni to uni but a friend got 69.1 last year in a different university and was given a 1st. Well done! It took me 6 months to get my results from my french uni, so much hassle!!

    Are the results online on the 22nd or in the post on the 22nd? They may be online on the 21st?

    I'm not sure. It doesn't make sense for them to go online on the 22nd, as it's a Friday and results are supposed to arrive in the post the day after they're online. I'd assume banquo has a clearer picture of what's happening.

    I'm almost certain that 69.1 is the cut-off and you get rounded up for the first.
