TinyNEDancer Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Hello I’ve done a search to see if I can find the answer on this forum but I can’t so I hope someone can help. I am just wondering what the numerical mark boundaries are for the award categories (not sure if I am explaining this correctly!). DD has an IDTA Tap exam coming up and I believe she can be awarded (although I might be wrong): fail/pass/merit /distinction I was wondering if the marks needed for each were the same as RAD? Also, she is doing a Medal Test at the same time. Apparently the marks will be given as fail/pass/commended/highly commended/honours. Will there be a numerical mark too? And what are the numerical boundaries for this one? i hope this makes sense! Thank you ☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dancersmum Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 IDTA do give a numerical mark too but from memory the mark boundaries are quite different from RAD. Distinction is 85% and over. Pretty sure it was 60% to pass but unsure where the boundary lies between pass and merit - about 74% at a guess but really cannot remember. I'm not sure my DDs ever did a medal test but I thought the fail/pass/commended/highly commended/honours were the applicable results for the graded exams they did. Again , honours was over 85% and I think highly commended was 75-84% but I am going back quite a few years - about 4 or 5 years since DD2 took an IDTA exam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponklemum Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 With the tap medal test it’s 65-74 pass, 75-79 commended, 80-84 highly commended and 85-100 honors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
