LinMM Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Well she definitely seems to say you have to get distinction at every section to get one overall!! But I personally have no idea how it's marked so perhaps other RAD Advanced oners will know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance*is*life Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 They changed the marking system for Advanced syllabi, so that the marks are in groups and single sections. For instance pointe is still on its own and you have to get at least 4 for that to pass the exam, but there are 4 sections marked together (centre practise,ports de bras and pirouettes/adage/allegro/ free enchainements) for which you would have to get 16 out of 40 to pass. Distinction is 75 and over, just like for the children's exams. I am not sure if the new syllabi are going to be marked in the same way, but this is how the old syllabi were marked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance*is*life Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I just checked on the RAD site and the new syllabi have gone back to the 10 separate sections all of which have to be passed individually. That will be coming in from January 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pups_mum Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Proud mummy alert.......just got DD's Advanced1 result. She passed with a good merit. I know she will be a teeny bit disappointed as she had a distinction at advanced foundation last year but given the multiple disasters that befell her in the run up and on the day I think she should be jolly proud of herself. I am thrilled. Hope there is good news for everyone else awaiting results too. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pups_mum Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thanks all, and well done to everyone else who has had results too. Fingers crossed for those still waiting. I had another nice surprise today as I had an email from school saying my son has been put on the gifted and talented list for music. No idea what that means really but it sounds good! Have to confess we opened a bottle of bubbly tonight and given that I don't normally drink I am currently feeling pleasantly chilled out! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
