Refer to the following regarding student safety net for semester 1, 2021. Monash University recently established an Academic Safety Net working group – made up of students and staff members of the Academic Board – to make recommendations to the Academic Board about grading matters for semester one and two 2021. Their recommendations were voted on and approved by the Academic Board. Please refer to this fact sheet regarding semester two approved arrangements. Academic Safety Net working group outcomes: 

To support you in achieving the best possible academic outcome during the disruption caused by COVID-19, with the close involvement of elected student representatives, Monash University has made temporary changes to grading and results for eligible teaching periods. The recommendations that were voted on and approved by Academic Board are: o Supplementary assessment: If students achieve a mark of 45-49, they can choose to complete supplementary assessment in all the units that meet these criteria. The previous cap of two units for supplementary assessments is relaxed. o Existing threshold hurdles: Any existing threshold hurdles will be applied at 45, including exams. o Withdrawing from units with no fail grade: After results are released, students can choose to exclude the results of all passed units studied in eligible teaching periods from the calculation of their Grade Point Average and Weighted Average Mark. This is based on the principle that the disadvantage experienced by the student is experienced in all units, not just select units. Students who opt to exclude their results will have each unit which they passed recorded as SFR (Satisfied Faculty Requirements) on the transcript.

Is a formula sheet available for the BFF3351 final examination? No. No formula sheet will be provided in the final exam.
