Ordinary to Honours

Finical · 2012-12-18 14:19:10

Does anyone know if it's possible to do an add on honours year if you just got a pass degree in the three year ordinary degree say for example in business for me? Or do you need to be achieving higher?

Yes you can, i'm doing the electronics add on, though I got more than a pass myself, there are plenty of lads doing the course that got pass ordinary degrees, I assume it's probably the same for most add ons...hope that helps!

For business I asked a few lectures (general BBL7) and they said the ordinary degree is satisfactory to get into the honours degree. Now I think just passing an ordinary level course is fairly pointless anyways but I'd say you'd get into the honours year scraping by.
