I'm quite concerned about my mark because i mainly get 60-67 in my units so far. I'm up to date with my work and i understand the concepts but i've always struggled with my writing abilities. Every comment i get in my assignments is always "express clearly" or some writing comment about my grammar.

should i be worrying about this pass mark?
:confused:

Maybe attending a workshop may be helpful?

What subject(s)? What are you aiming to do as a job?

A fair few graduate programs have a credit minimum so you'll ideally have an overall sng of 65+ in the subject at the end of the semester.

currently i'm really struggling with human biology 108. I mean biology during highschool was fun but this topic is just hands down a killer :(
I'm want to be a primary school teacher when im older ;-; hopefully hahah just submitted my educ essay so i pray i get at least a credit

I'm awfully confused about the minimum credit point?? my course says:
Minimum number of credit points for the degree 96
Minimum number of credit points at 200 level or above 60
but when i calculate all my units for the next 4 years, it doesnt even reach the minimum

also does the sng number really matter?

i'm such a lost child in uni

You also have electives(units you get to choose from) which will count toward count towards the minimum credit points.

I recommend that you go to an academic advisor who can help you with course structure.

At the end of the day,bio108 is only a single unit towards your degree and performing well in other subjects can more then make up for it.

If you are aware of what weaknesses you have then you need to tackle them. There are plenty of services at uni to help.
