Click on the icon

or go to this link to check your marks

The FinalGrade field has what I expect to be your final mark for COMP1911.

Hopefully it contains a mark >= 50 and a grade of PS, CR, DN or HD. If so (provisionally) you
have met all hurdles and other requirements and have passed COMP1911 - congratulations!!!

Provisional marks may change, for example when calculation errors are discovered but so far I've never changed a provisional PS to a FL.

If your "FinalGrade" field contains the grade " WD " or " WC " this indicates your COMP1911 mark and grade is yet to be determined.

This may be because

1. You did not sit for the exam, have supplied documentation and have officially applied to sit the supplementary exam and have organised this with me already. Note: For students who did not sit the exam and are doing the supp, it may just say FL for now, don't worry if it does, it is just temporary until you sit for the supplementary.

2. You've been being offered the opportunity to sit a supplementary exam because you have not met the requirements to pass COMP1911 but are being given another opportunity to meet these requirements and pass COMP1911. If you do not take this opportunity you will not pass COMP1911. Note in this case you can not raise your mark beyond 50 no matter how good your performance on the supplementary exam is. A successful supplementary exam will allow you to pass!

Some further information:

COMP1911 marks were scaled up slightly. Your marks for the individual exam questions are visible to you with your assignment & lab marks. I don't release exam questions or answers (yours or mine). Your answers were all run through a series of tests. These included tests you hadn't seen.

Supplementary Exam Date:

Tentative Time and Location: Friday 13th July 10:45 - 1pm

I will confirm this soon.

Bridging Course

If you got an HD or a DN you are automatically eligible for the bridging course. If you received a CR or a PS and are keen, register and send me an email as well.

You can register here and get more information here .

I will release some lecture material before it starts. In the meantime, feel free to brush up on structs, pointers and malloc!

Students going on to do COMP1521

Even if you are not going to do the bridging course but you are going on to do COMP1521, it is a good idea to revise structs, pointers and malloc!
