From what I gather most universities cap your score at 40% if you refer your work over the summer.
True Marsh. Because there's only 6 of us in total they can't afford to lose anyone off the course so they're just handing them places regardless of their effort/grading. Sad really especially when those of us who are trying feel like they can coast by and graduate, knowing that in the design industry it's not about grade or uni it's about your "style of work", so they can do minimal and still "make it" it seems. Yes they may have a smaller portfolio at the end of the course but could still get picked up by a top design agency from just a single piece of work. Very frustrating.
