I thought you were doing an engineering degree...? A conceded pass in a subject called "engineering fundamentals" doesnt bode well. I never understood the concept of a conceded pass. Its pretty much just saying "youre too shit to pass, but you got kinda close, so we feel sorry for you..."

You're right, it does seem kind of weird.

So does a conceded pass act like a real pass? Can you take the courses that depend on that one now?

[panich]

Pass Conceded only works for standalone subjects (ie ones that aren't a pre-requisite for anything else)

Since nothing else depends on it, then it means I got through. If I needed it as a pre-req, I would have needed to do it again.

Oh okay, and you don't get a credit if you get a 61%?

For me, you get the credit if you get 50%, but you need a minimum average of 60% to stay in the program.

But I hear engineering is very different.

Engineering Fundamentals isn't an accurate name. It's basically getting electrical engineers to do a subject of mechanical/materials/civil engineering. Relevance? Some, but practically none.
