and the Results are in...

Midterm grades are officially in., and there is good news and bad news.

The grading system is quite different than what I am used to and it's hard to really assess performance. I am not sure if this is Warwick MBA grading or if grades are usually given in this manner here in England. I will investigate.

The usual grading scale:
90% (A) - 80 (B) - 70 (C) - 60 (D) - 50% and below FAIL

Warwick MBA scale:
70% and above = distinction
50% = pass

So we see the disparity here at 50% - Failing to me = passing here.

The good news is that I passed all the midterms - they were only worth 20%...but still it was my first set of MBA exams. And even received a distinction or two. Exciting.

The bad news is that I have to take FINALS in THREE weeks. Man, how time flies.
