If there is nothing about an examination that makes you think you have passed, that is perfectly alright as not having evidents to suggest that you passed does not mean you have failed. – Appeal to Ignorance.

If 51 is a pass. And if you get 50, it should be a pass as there is only one mark difference. This 1% is highly insignificant out of a possible 100%. Hence, it follows that if you get 49, you should still pass, as there is only one mark difference between 49 and 50. Consequently, you can never fail an exam. -Semantic Slippery Slope
