Which must be completed satisfactorily Explanation: I'm wondering if it isn't something to do with actually having completed the modules, before they can be counted? |

the satisfactory completion of 10 required units Explanation: Do you happen to know the student's level of education (primary, secondary, tertiary)? Concerning higher education in the US, classes are generally categorized as required courses (called "core courses" or "general education courses"), elective courses and sometimes major-specific courses. Essentially, students are required to complete a specific number of units within these categories to fulfill the requirements of a major program and obtain an Associate's (two-year degree) or Bachelor's degree (four-year degree). In general, the terms used to refer to these are called "required units," "elective units" or "major units" (with some variation). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs (2014-08-23 22:41:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think the meaning suggests a program "consisting of 10 units/credits/courses to be satisfactorily completed and proposed by the student in fulfillment of school/degree/major/course requirements." Example sentence(s):
