Grading System.

    So I just added up my results and I saw that I got 59.4 overall in second year. Anyhow I heard from someone that sometimes the college will round up and obviously I'd much rather have 60 than 59.4. I don't suppose anyone knows about such a thing? If so any help is appreciated!

    Normally they'll round up for such borderline cases but only in final year. I got a 69.5 overall in second year so had the same experience.

    They rounded mine up to 70 in second year from 69.something

    Assuming you're not still in second year because you have all your results, how did you not get a final grade overall after your summer exams? It's usually there when you check exam results.

    I know I'm a bit late to the party but you're correct OP.

    If you get a grade ending in a 9 before it goes to the bord of directors in summer they bump it up. I was told this by a lecturer about a year ago when I was asking why my grades were so low, just wanted some feedback.
