Grading is a term which is applied to a wide range of subjects - it refers to categorising individuals with others sharing similar qualities. As such it applies to wool (but is often termed wool classing), wheat, soil, sand, meat, gravel, and a wide range of other matters.
This article maybe needs to move to Educational grades in Australia or something similar? and in accordance with the manual of style, should be able to use the article name in the lead section. Ga rr ie 01:03, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
I've added sections and wikitables to the article to make it a bit more readable, but it's still a bit of a mess. It needs editing for clarity (I'd work on this, but I don't really know enough about grading outside my own university to be able to), probably less numbers, and maybe fewer examples. -- Nasica ( talk) 01:44, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
I go to Monash and the grading system here (GPA) is additional to the normal grading system and as far as I know it hasn't even been implemented yet. The page does not mention at all that this is a GPA.
The normal system is for coursework units is as follows:
High Distinction(HD)80+ Distinction(D)70-79 Credit(C)60-69 Pass(P)50-59 Fail(N)Less than 50 Near Pass(NP)45-49
For Honours, the same system is used except that the names are changed to HI, HIIA, HIIB, HIII and N respectively.
I think that this system is much more common from my exposure to other grading systems than the one listen as 'normal'. I know that Melbourne Uni uses the Honours grading I mentioned above for coursework.-- 211.28.222.112 ( talk) 13:56, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
According to the Uni website last updated 18 March 2010 [2] The grading system seems to be the same as most unis and not extremely different like the article suggests. Unless there is any objection ill edit this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.133.172 ( talk) 12:28, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
Sydney Uni Grading Grad boundaries are wrong -
100 - 85% is a HD 75 - 84% is a D 65 - 74% is a Cr 50 - 64% is a Pass —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.167.248.144 ( talk) 03:33, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi,
I feel CDU grades should be included into this page as it is now ranked 13th in Australia in one, if the University ranking systems. http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/world-university-rankings/2011-2012/oceania.html
The ranking system is as follows: http://www.cdu.edu.au/lba/all/allsp/documents/HigherEducationAssessmentGrades_000.pdf
I would add it, but have no idea how.
Many Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.105.158.33 ( talk) 08:35, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
I removed the whole section titled "University of Sydney" from the article. As 99of9 mentioned, it is badly outdated. Here it is:

In 2000, the university-wide academic board for The University of Sydney approved a policy of using Norm-referenced assessment for all faculties (although not all faculties use the official policy [1]). In Section 3.2 of the academic board assessment guidelines (Distribution of Grades), the percentages are stated as follows: [2]
This may be alternatively stated by percentile as follows:
Note, however, that Section 3.2.2 cautions that this distribution "may vary from unit of study to unit of study, and from year to year", and that "the proportions should apply [only] at highly aggregated levels". Many courses also have Non-Graded Pass (NGP) and Non-Graded Fail (F), where it is considered more appropriate to have qualitative than quantitative assessment. |
