- Not all courses are graded but the pass mark for School of Rehabilitation Science courses that are graded is 60%
- The weighted average that must be obtained at each promotion point is 70%
- The calculation of the weighted mean average considers the number of credit units for each course
- Below is an example showing the calculation of the weighted average for Module 1. It should be noted that a student may get 60% on more than one course and still meet the standard for promotion
Example: Module 1
| Course Number | Credit Units | Course Name | Example of grades received (%) | Proportionate value (Grade x Credit units) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 808.3 | 3 | Lifespan 1: Development, Aging and Pharmacological Issues across the Lifespan | 74 | 222 |
| 822.5 | 5 | Foundations 1: Functional Activities and Exercise Therapy | 78 | 390 |
| 840.3 | 3 | Foundations 2: Introductory Treatment Methods | 85 | 255 |
| 851.1 | 1 | Case Integration 1 | 60 | 60 |
| 860.2 | 2 | Evidence Based Practice 1 | 60 | 120 |
| 861.2 | 2 | Professional Practice 1 | 60 | 120 |
| total | 16 | 1167 | ||
| Weighted Average for the module (must be > 70) | 1167/1600 = 72.9375 |
Note: Clinical Courses are treated separately: a pass must be obtained
| 850.1 | 1 | Clinical Practice I | P |
