    So what does sufficiency mean? I failed the elective I got  sufficiency of 1. I'd like to see the break down of B.C./ C's


    Will you appeal ? Believe 1 is borderline and in the same boat myself
    you could have a chance, they reverse a couple each year. Try and make a relevant case about a specific answer that you interpreted differently.

    I passed core but failed elective.. I got a decile of 10, anyone know if that would stop me repeating in Jan?
    Confused by the whole results interpretation!

    I wonder was the whole 1617 current debacle right?
    I failed elective and my thing said current.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 632 ✭✭✭Lyra Fangs


    Passed both thankfully, anyone know what the green blocks mean? Anyone got a link to what sufficiency and decile mean? :P Would like some more info.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 BIGKID2


    green means you have passed at a high level, orange is borderline. i scraped by core with 6 yellow and didnt even do the comp day

    I failed the elective for the third time. I really feel the paper went well for me.. I did not think I would be on the wrong side again? I got a suffiency of 1 and am wondering am I far off? I got HC in assessment. Wondering what I should do. Don't think I can do this again

    Sufficiency I think is what % of the population you are in.

    Yellow means you barely scraped a pass, green means you passed with daylight.

    We file means what % of the population you came in. So decile one is the top 10%.

    The lower your sufficiency score the closer you are to passing.

    I think but am not sure that sufficiency one means you are two points from a pass and if you can improve a BC to a c or a nc to a c you pass.

    If I'm resitting in Januay can you resit the elective assessment

    Yes, for about 150 per paper. You get an hour or so and you can bring one person with you but have to leave your phone outside.
