Two questions;
1. If you completely fail a resit - will it bring down the grade you currently have?
2. Seeing as you've already paid for resits, what happens if you don't show up for them?

2. Nothing. If you are not going to it tell the exams officer, otherwise they can waste time trying to find you etc, you don't want to p*** them off as you may need help from them in the future. -

Skipping a resit would defeat the object of taking it in the first place
But if you don't turn up, I don't think anything would happen.
They choose your best grade though. If you get a lower grade in your resit, they'll use the higher grade.Last edited by Going_To_California; 26-01-2010 at 15:46. -

You can skip any exam. Skip a resit and you'll piss off your tutors. We've been told that if we skip exams, we'll have to pay for them ourselves.
Take the resit. I got put in for a resit for an exam that I got an A in. It was a waste of money, but I sat it anyway, just in case I could've gotten a higher grade. -
