    Anyone know if in MU your second year results are counted into the final year mark or of its based solely on your final year grades? :)

    Second year marks are (currently) only counted if you did better in second year than in third year. Then what happens is they'll take some of your 2nd year marks (30% I think) and mix them with 70% of your 3rd grade to increase your overall. Happens automatically.

    If you did better in 3rd year than in 2nd year... they ignore your 2nd year marks.

    But I think all that is changing, not sure when, but I heard they want to start basing people's overall degree mark on performance throughout the degree. Which I'm perfectly fine with.
