Hi, I was hoping someone could help me.
I'm trying to create a database to track exam results of students through 4 years of university study. Each year, students sit up to 10 different exams which have different weighting allocated to the results to determine a final aggregate result. I want to be able to have a database to view each student, their results for each exam, their aggregate results and then rank within their year grade.
The thing I am struggling with is how to design the database as: 1. there are some students who repeat a year, and 2. over the years, occasionally the weighting of exams change.
Can someone help me think of a way to design the database to get around these problems?
