Is there a 60% exam pass rate? A student asks if the exams all require a 60% pass grade. Other students say that most courses require a 50% or 60% pass grade. Another student indicates that ADHD makes it challenging to write exams, although AU accessibility allows for extra time, breaks, snacks, and moving around. Yet another student says a retest is $200, which can rescue a poor grade.
