To indicate the nature and proportion of the types
of assessment associated with each unit there is a code followed
by a numeric value to represent the percentage. For example, an
assessment made entirely on the basis of a formal examination
would be coded EX100. If there is no information, this does not
mean there is no assessment! Some information was not available
at the time of going to press. Please ask your Director of Studies
for more information. The following codes have been used:
Type of assessment | |
Assessed coursework | |
Dissertation | |
Assessed essay | |
