WAM-what does it stand for? I know its related to gpa-grade point average, but what does WAM mean?

 

[Calculon]

It's the average of all your marks in subjects, weighted according to their credit point value.

WAM stands for: Senate Committee on Ways and Means

lol @ all the interesting posts..

WAM, if you're speaking in the context of UNSW, means weighted average mark.

e.g. a person, for

Semester 1 2005
ACCT 1501 80 DN
ECON 1101 80 DN
ECON 1202 82 DN
LEGT 1711 72 CR

TERM WAM : 78.500 [(80+80+82+72)/4]

Semester 2 2005
ACCT 1511 73 CR
ECON 1102 78 DN
ECON 1203 85 HD
FINS 1613 75 DN

TERM WAM : 77.750 [(73+78+85+75)/4]

WAM: 78.125 [(77.75+78.5)/2]

basically, WAM is just a mark. kinda like graded point average (GPA).
