How does compensation work?

    Alrite, it has probably been explained but I am just wondering how does compensation work? I have heard that if you pass 4 out of your 6 exams by 45% or more, then you get compensated for the other two if you get 30% or more. Is this true?
    Cheers if anyone can help

    E Grade (Grade Point Value 1.6)
    E grades are failing grades, which have a grade point value of 1.6. These E
    grades may convert to E(C) (pass with compensation) only where you have
    completed and obtained passing grades in modules accounting for 75% or
    more of the total credit required to successfully complete the stage (usually
    9 modules) and the compensation GPA for the attempt at the stage is 2.00
    or greater. Provisional E grades are then considered compensated and final
    grades of E(C) are awarded
