MSc Data Science - Grade Statistics
Dear King's College London,
I am writing to request information regarding the final grade distribution for the Master's in Data Science program for the academic year 2022/2023.
Specifically, I am interested in the following details:
> The final graduation grade distribution in percentiles, including the 95th, 96th, 97th, 98th, and 99th percentiles, as well as the maximum final graduation grade achieved by students in the specific program during that year.
> The total number of students enrolled in the MSc Data Science program during the academic year 2022/2023.
> The number of students who attained a final graduation grade higher than 87 in the specific program during that year.
For the calculation of the final graduation grades, please use a weighted average by taking into account the credit of each module.
Yours faithfully,
Georgios Nikolaidis
