honours grading

[timmyjohnson]

just a quick question.

how does the honours system work in singapore? does a first class honours mean you have to maintain good grades throughout your 4 years in uni? or isit like some overseas uni that you are just graded on your last honours year?

Local / Singapore Uni and UK Uni works the same. They have a cumulative GPA system that keep tracks of your results since the very last semester, till the final one.

Their Honor naming are ; First Class, Second Upper and so on.
