CS2 Marking of Written Paper and Modelling Paper (R Modelling)

Hi,

Could someone please confirm what the marking weighting is for the CS2 written paper and the CS2 computer based paper using R, i.e. is each paper given a weighting of 50%? Also in this case would it be the average mark of these papers that would be used in your final CS2 result? Do you need to get a minimum mark in each paper?

Thanks,

Thanks,

Minimum of 1 mark for paper B and ~40% for paper A (the latter is only because otherwise, you can't possibly hit the overall pass mark).
It's 70% paper A and 30% paper B, where they are put together to form a single aggregate mark which will then determine if you passed.
