What if...

Damianlegend

OK so , here are my 9 subjects :
Engineering(HL),construction(HL),DCG(HL),maths(OL),Irish(OL),French(OL),
English(HL),Polish(HL) and LCVP

the 2 coure i would like to do have 360 and 300 pts. The on with 360 pts states I need a C3 in two HL and a D3 in 4 OL + a B3 in maths(OL), and the one with 300 pts is the same but I dont need a B3 in maths.

So if I fail lets say engineering, will i still be applicable to those courses if I score the requirements ?

At a quick glance, I don't see why not.

Only 6 subjects are counted for points.

You have enough HL options without engineering.

Engineering doesn't seem to be a specific requirement for either course as you have outlined it.

finality

yes

Damianlegend

ok thanks, i wont bother with engineering so.. its too late now anyway :P

finality

you could drop to OL if you think you're going to fail it.

Damianlegend

yes but i have already done the projet for higher level..

Not having an engineering portfolio won't mean you'll fail it. If your project, practical and theory are good you can still get a B

my project is ok..my practical is ok is well..my theory will be brutal.. :P id say i should get about 25/50 for the project part and id say i will fil the thoery..so no chance

If your project and practical are ok you should get at least 32 or 33 out of 50

Damianlegend

ya so that means i should pass my theory in order to get 50% overall..and the point is..i dont think i will pass my theory tbh ;/ im fu**ed like ;/

Lets say you have 33% from the project and practical, you need 17% to get 50% overall which is only 34% of the theory. Should be no problem if you know anything at all

Damianlegend

hmm..ok and what if i get 17% in my theory..which is 40% overall..will i still pass ? or do i have to pass my theory in order to pass da whole thing ?

I'm fairly sure its a combined mark and you dont have to pass theory

Why do you need 50%? 38% is a pass.

Exactly

Damianlegend

I thught 40% was a pass..? anyhow..I am kind of more confident now..now I need to pray I will get at lest 30% in my theory.. wish me luck guys and thanks for all the advice.

There's a note in the candidate booklet or whatever it's called saying a D grade is awarded with a tolerance of 2% - so you pass with 38%

good luck, it sounds like you're going to pass it!
