To pass the course (other than via a supplementary exam), you must pass the lab 4 hurdle assessment and score at least 40% for both your total assignment mark and for your total examination mark (both are also hurdle assessments). If you have less than 40% for either your total assignment mark or for your total examination mark you will fail this course with a final mark that is either 44/100 or the sum of your assignment marks and your final examination mark, whichever is the lower. If you have at least 40% for both your total assignment mark and for your final examination mark, your final mark will be a sum of your marks.
Supplementary exams (resulting in a 50-pass (PS) or a fail (N)) will be awarded only to those students who meet one of the following criteria:
- The student has a final mark of at least 45/100 but less than 50/100.
- The student failed the lab 4 hurdle assessment or scored less than 40% in either the total assignment mark or for the total examination mark but still gained a final mark of at least 45/100 overall.
