Calculation of Grades in a Module To meet Academic Standards for Promotion

1. Not all courses are graded but the pass mark for M.P.T. courses that are graded is 60%.
2. The weighted average that must be obtained at each promotion point is 70%. The calculation of the weighted mean average considers the number of credit units for each course. Below is an example showing the calculation of the weighted average for Module I. It should be noted that a student may get 60% on more than one course and still meet the standard for promotion.

Example: Module I

Course Number	Credit Units	Course Name	Example of grades received (%)	Proportionate value (Grade x Credit units)
808.3	3	Lifespan I: Development, Aging and Pharmacological Issues across the Lifespan	74	222
822.5	5	Foundations I: Functional Activities and Exercise Therapy	78	390
840.3	3	Foundations II: Introductory Treatment Methods	85	255
851.1	1	Case Integration I	60	60
860.2	2	Evidence Based Practice I	60	120
861.2	2	Professional Practice I	60	120
total	16			1167
		Weighted Average for the module (must be > 70)		1167/1600 = 72.9375

Note – Clinical Courses are treated separately: a pass must be obtained
