    Just looked at the breakdown of my English grades for one module on Turnitin, and it averages out at 74.1% I'm guessing that I'm stuck with it, but would there be any chance that they'd ever round it up to the 75 and let me get an A1? Or do I just have to suck it up?

    :D

    One of annoying things about studying english at UL I'm afraid! That's still a really good grade.

    If it makes the difference between awards at degree time, it might be taken into consideration.

    I know that most lecturers work off a curve system. So they want so many people to pass and get A's and so on. I think that officially at least for us in engineering that at the time when we get our degrees they will allow for a small percentage like that to be brought up once our qca was 3.4 or over. As for you I think it depends on how well the others in your module do.
