The only people who will really know are in your department. Go find/email them.

Yes, it depends entirely on your university & course. I know for mine, most modules are compulsary but there is a slight possibility for me to swap as long as the modules are very similar.

Just ask your tutor

I've dropped two Oxford courses so far (and thus am having to spend my penultimate term doing two courses rather than revising)

As people have said, depends on your uni/course. Some modules will be compulsory others won't be, ask you tutor.
