What looks worse on a cv?

Dropping out in final year or failing all your exams and ending up with a pass degree?

Dropping out.
Hey @Frigateer

Committing to a degree and finalising it shows that you've stuck to something. I think a lot of employers would see this as something valuable.
It depends on what kind of grade you get in your final year overall, and which employer is looking at the CV / job being applied for.
I think anything below a 2:2 is generally considered bad, but I'm not totally sure on how an employer would view it.

No, not "bad" just not as good as a 2:2+.

A Douglas is still an honours degree, and it didn't hold Carol Vorderman back.
