<P> Modules results are sometimes issued on a graded basis , consisting of pass grades 1 ( threshold 85 % , a distinction ) , 2 ( 70 -- 84 % ) , 3 ( 55 -- 69 % ) & 4 ( 40 -- 54 % ) , and fail ( below 40 % ) . This grade is calculated as the lower of the overall continuous assessment score ( OCAS ) and overall examination score ( OES ) . </P>
