    I am scared i failed my resits !!
    I have a bad feeling i have failed my resits. I had to resit one exam and one assignment for a different module, and i have a feeling it went terrible.. Spent so much money for nothing. Is it worth for me doing a top up degree as well as resetting those two modules (taking into consideration extra cost) ? or should i just leave and get a full time job somehow?

    ps: i am second year.. going into 3rd in september

    What does just about mean?

    Could you provide specific grades/percentages so we can (try) to determine how likely you are to pass your resits. You're most likely just worrying over nothing, if you learned why you failed the modules originally then I am sure you have at least met a 40% pass mark.

    Dude if you can't scrape 40% you shouldn't be going to Uni.

    And why is that?

    There's plenty of valid reasons for not obtaining 40% in a particular module. For instance: being sick, family problems, struggling with that particular module, too much partying and not enough revising etc.

    Don't think too much partying would count as mitigation

    Too much partying resulting in liver failure might be good
