Dear Gerdi

 

I refer to your request of 24 October 2024. We apologise for the delay in
providing a response.  The University’s response follows.

 

I am requesting information on student performance in the following
papers, for the year 2024.

 

Semester 1, 2024:

BIOSCI 204

EARTHSCI 220

EARTHSCI 202

EARTHSCI 203

LAW131

LAW141

 

For the 6 papers listed above, please provide the following data for the
year 2023:

 

(1) The final grade distribution for the paper (broken down by letter
grade, e.g. A+, A, A-, ... etc.)

(2) The mean and median final marks for the paper (numerical)

(3) The number of students who completed the paper

 

The University does not hold final mark statistics. Grades, not marks, are
the University's final measure of academic assessment. Marks are used for
initial calculation of grades (see
[1]https://cdn.auckland.ac.nz/assets/auckla...)
but grades may be subsequently changed for various reasons, such as
aegrotat/compassionate consideration or academic misconduct.

 

This constitutes a partial refusal of your request under section 18(g) of
the OIA.

 

The grade distribution information you have requested is refused under s
18(d) of the of the Act, as the information requested is publicly
available.

 

Please refer to the following requests and the University’s responses, for
this information:

[2]https://fyi.org.nz/request/28215-grade-d...

[3]https://fyi.org.nz/request/27761-average...

 

You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with this response.

 

Yours sincerely,

Farleigh Quinlivan
