    Hi

    I am currently doing a masters through DCU connected.

    Five modules, four have 15 credits and the thesis has 30 credits.

    I know its obvious that the value of the thesis is huge. Is there any way of working out what id need to get if i want to keep my average over 70 %

    Currently at 68% with two module (15 credits) completed.

    Multiply your current average (68) by the number of credits you've achieved (30).

    68*30=2040

    Multiply your desired grade (70) by the total number of credits for the course (90).

    70*90=6300

    Take the first number away from the second number.

    6300-2040=4260

    Divide this by the number of credits you haven't yet achieved (60) and you'll get the required average for the remaining modules (71).

    4260/60=71
