compass-136	Betteney, Mark	Exit velocity: is there truth in the commonly-held belief that grades for undergraduate students tend to improve from Year 2 to Year 3? A case study	2015	8	.pdf	application/pdf	3221	131	62	I have tried to reassure these students that, from my experience of leading Progression and Award Boards (PABs), it is the norm for student grades to accelerate (i.e. the trend is for Year 3 grades to be better than those in Year 2, in spite of the increase in academic demands). I realise immediately that my assumption that student grades improve from Year 2 to Year 3 has been established in my mind because we have an official name for it.	cache/compass-136.pdf	txt/compass-136.txt
