Re: 
 
Faculty of Science response to the recommendations of the 
Meeting on Grading (8 March 2006)  

 
 
 
 
In discussion the Faculty expressed strong concern that students with 7 A- grades and 
1 B+ grade would be excluded from First Class Honours and would prefer this was 
addressed either through the GPA cut-off or the number of courses used in calculating 
the grade of Honours.   
 
However, overall the majority of Science departments support the recommendations.
