I had the worst possible experience during my diploma thesis grading, plus the overall grading system works in a very suspicious way and is totally unfair. My 1st degree is from an Engineering university (5years - integrated master) thus I had high expectations which were proven to be false. Throughout the thesis process, I was repeatedly assured that everything was progressing well. My supervisor gave me the impression that my work met all expectations and that my performance was strong. However, I was surprised and disheartened to receive a final thesis grade of 8/10, which was significantly lower than my average course grades, typically around 9/10. This discrepancy brought down my final degree average to 8.6, which does not reflect the overall quality and consistency of my academic performance. In higher level universities, you are supposed to get your best grade in your best project, which is your thesis, but not on Neapolis Pafos University apparently. Regarding my work, please note that even at my presentation everyone was thrilled about my work (I also answered every question with great success as they mentioned). All 3 supervisors congratulated me and then gave me an 8. I wanted some feedback, and I tried to call my supervisor but he rejected every single one of my calls!! Hilarious. The lack of alignment between the supervisor’s feedback and the final grade raises concerns about fairness and consistency in the grading system.
