i received my results on 4 dec 2008 and it states that i am awarded with only 29 marks(NN) for one of the subject. This is ridiculous as my individual and group assignments added up to 29 as well. i believe that my examination results was not credited into the overall score.

i checked out the appeal details on portal and SIM had conveniently arrowed to RMIT Australia, asking students to email the australian course coordinator and to cc singapore course coordinator in the email.
I did so on 4 dec 2008(and even attach printscreens of my results) and up to date, i had not received any reply from them despite me sending a reminder email on 8.12.2008.


As stated in portal,we were told to email to the australian course coordinator within 5 days and should we be unhappy with the appeal feedback, we can lodge a formal appeal within the next 20 days.

i gave SIM Singapore a call this morning and this is their reply:"you should email them within 5 days, but it doesnt mean that they will reply you within that 5 days!"

THIS IS SO FUSTRATING! i could just give her a slap if i were present at that time.i guess all part time students will understand how i feel....all the time, efforts, unpaid leave that we sacrificed,all for our studies.

well there is nothing much that i can do now, except to WAIT. or no i should kick up a fuss really soon at SIM

Hi Sherone,

Guess Arthur Poh was focus on 'law in real life application' not exam focus. I felt that I would have done better if he spends more time going through tutorials with us. Aniwaez, dun give up ok, jiayou jiayou!

P.S If you need help, pm me ok? Perhaps I can dig some revision notes for you

I do agree that there are some minor cock up since they decided to release the results on the rmit website.

For my case, on the subject marcoeconomics, some of us all recieve the grade of P for the subject on Dec 4 Thurs, when most of us score HD for our test which is already 40%, that means just require less than 20m to pass to the exams. This means that we all had fail the major paper. which is quite impossible.

I almost appeal for my result until my classmate told me there are change of result on DEC 5 Fri. Do check if they update the results again in the rmit website.

P/S: Realise that law subject had quite a number of casualties...any seniors who manage to survive law subject care to advise? Got finanical law next semester to clear...

I am sure all those who knows the ans, will help you de..

RMIT modules are getting harder to pass as the years goes by. And the administrator is right. It depends on the course administrator to decide. And Its better you read the course guide again and check. Some modules requires you to pass your examination paper then you will pass your overall. If for eg, you failed your exam paper but overall (adding in your assignment grade) you passed, you will still be considered as failed and the results in the portal will reflect your paper's results.

Arthur Poh was my law lecturer in poly. Haha.. quite shocking to hear that he is teaching in SIM now. Anyway, from what I know, my batch (37th intake), has lots of casualties and I have friends who repeated this module for 3 times!! Although Law is open book, its not easy to score as they have very high expectations of students. I barely passed law too.
