Part C Mathematics and Philosophy Exam Conventions 2025-26

7. Marking conventions

Examination scripts, theses, dissertations, and essays are marked by examiners and assessors.  Their marks result ultimately in a University Standardised Mark (USM), in the range from 0 to 100, for each script and submitted piece of work, which are then used in the process of classifying candidates.  USMs in the classification process are always whole numbers.
