* The target refers to the new rating scale adopted for RAE 2008. Broadly an average of over 2 in the new scale is equivalent to 5 in the 2001 scale, while a rating of 3 is equivalent to the former 5* rating.

† The National Student Survey asked final-year students to report their satisfaction with a variety of aspects of their experience on a 5-point scale. The KPI relates to answers to the final summary prompt ‘overall I am satisfied with the quality of the course’. The mean score does not include those subject areas where the response rate was too low or numbers were too small for data to be published.
