Okay let me start of by giving a bit of background. I’m a first year medical student and recently done my resit exams, out of the 5 modules I received 3 Merits and it was one single exam I have failed by one mark (science of medicine exam) . I’ve been told I need to repeat the whole of first year again. It’s very disheartening and disappointing to be needing to resit the whole year just because of one mark. I know that the uni can’t change the regulations of GMC and I was more than happy to carry this basic science course to re do and continue with second year. I was even keen do be registered to sit all of y1 exams on top of y2 exams but was told I can’t do them simultaneously. I’m on here to ask if anyone has experienced this and decided to resit the year, how do u get over this especially cos I was so close in passing yet not enough. I don’t think there’s any appeal process tbh.
Thanks
