    This may be a silly question, but how is weighting of credits calculated when it comes to being graded for your final year?

    E.g. I finish with 60% is a module worth 5 credits and 90% in a module worth 10 credits.

    What's the overall grade?

    Multiply module grads by credits and add all together before dividing by the total modules credits which should be 60 for a degree. Note some degrees final award is based on third and fourth year usually a third and two thirds.
