Lol I guess I'll know soon enough but I'm just curious :)
SO pissed off about my Semester 2 subject! I had the shittiest tutor who was no help whatsoever when it came to doing those massive research assignments :(

I think you would be able to get the 5.5 increment. 79.5 rounds up to 80 :D

According to that you've achieved a 'Medium Pass' which is an average "Above 60th up to 80th percentile" and gives a 5.0 increment.

Lol yeah it sucked! I skipped some of my tutes, they were so incredibly useless!!

About that percentile thing, it says on that page: "Don’t make the mistake of assuming that your mark corresponds directly to your percentile ranking (eg that a mark of 70 automatically puts you in the 70th percentile) – it is your place in the rank of all students that determines the maximum value of the associated increment."

...Haha so I'm hoping that my 79.5 average gives me a ranking inside the top 20%, to sneak in for that 5.5 :) *fingers crossed*!

...Well, as it says on the UMEP page - that's not how they work out your increment, it's all about how your score ranks among the cohort.

riadnicolas:
^ i think that 79 is sufficient for a 5.5

if other umep students could shed some light on what they got and the corresponding increment that would be majorly helpful?

riadnicolas:
i just found out my student centre teacher knows what inc, i get cause the uni sends it to him, i got a +4 with a 64

JL_91:
I think it also depends heavily on which subject it is, e.g. a science subject vs. an arts subject.
