of the available marks. |

Anything less than 50% means a FAILURE. |

| Results |
|
| You will usually be notified of your results approximately ten weeks
from the conclusion of the examinations. The results show each module as a pass
or fail with grades to indicate the extent of failure. To encourage you to excel
at all levels in the examination scheme, two new pass grades were introduced,
namely "Merit" and "Distinction". The decision of the Institute, based on the
examiners' recommendations, is final and the Institute will not enter into any
correspondence with candidates about their examination results. |
|
| Prizes |
|
| The Institute at present awards a large number of prizes on the
results of examinations. Provided that a sufficiently high level of performance
has been achieved, the Institute will award prizes for the best candidates in
each module at each examination series. |
