Dear Arthur,

 

I refer to your request of 7 July 2025.  The University’s response
follows:

 

This request is in regard to statistical data on student performance for
the following University of Auckland papers. Could the following
statistics please be provided under the Official Information Act

 

(1) Final grade distribution (broken down grade by grade, e.g., A+, A,
etc.).

(2) The mean numerical mark.

(3) The median numerical mark.

(4) The number of students who completed the following courses:

 

2025 semester 1:

MEDSCI 201

MEDSCI 202

MEDSCI 203

MEDSCI 205

MEDSCI 311

MEDSCI 313

MEDSCI 315

MEDSCI 316

 

BIOSCI 201

With regard to your questions (1) and (4) above, the University has
published a ‘Student Grade Distributions Dashboard’ which provides a
high-level summary of grades awarded across courses taught at the
University of the past ten years.  To protect student privacy, grade
distributions are not shown for courses with low enrolment numbers.
Information on how to access and use the dashboard is available here:
[1]https://uoa.custhelp.com/app/answers/det...
This constitutes a partial  refusal of your request under s 18(d) in
respect of the publicly available information and under s 9(2)(a) in
respect of any courses with low numbers of students, to protect their
privacy.

 

With regard to your questions (2) and (3) above, The University does not
hold final mark statistics. Grades, not marks, are the University's final
measure of academic assessment. Marks are used for initial calculation of
grades (see
[2]https://cdn.auckland.ac.nz/assets/auckla...)
but grades may be subsequently changed for various reasons, such as
aegrotat/compassionate consideration or academic misconduct. This
constitutes a partial refusal of your request under section 18(g) of the
OIA.

 

You have the right to complain to an Ombudsman if you are dissatisfied
with this response.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Landon Watt
Legal Advisor
Office of the Vice-Chancellor
