To my knowledge 50% is pretty standard in Australian universities. doesn't vary much. If you got 50% in every course you'd get a degree. but you'd have a horrible GPA and not entirely sure anyone would hire you. If I had a GPA of 4 i'd feel like i'd have wasted my time and money on university.
In canada 55-65% is a pass depending on the university. 65% is on the higher end though. as in the tough to get into/high class schools tend to do the 65% thing.but at a lot of universities you can get a degree with 55%'s lol
70% seems high to me. while most of my courses have achieved above that... there would definitely be a few i'd need to redo if a passing grade was that high lol
How many points are taken off on assignments for mistakes must differ greatly then to make up for it. Because I'm usually pretty disappointed in myself if I get in the 70%'s. Also, GPA here doesn't really mean much unless you plan on going to graduate school.
