TMA fail -0 % please help

Hi,
I am currently struggling with my studies due to my anxiety etc.
I have a report to write which requires research, statistics etc. due on Wednesday. I have an extension for this one.

I spent a couple of weeks procrastinating and overthinking too much about my life etc.

I am wondering what happens if I wont submit this assignment or I would get 10% for this? I don't think I would get even the minimum 30 %
its 15% weight

I could build up on next assignments, but I am worried, because of this one I might fail a whole module. What happens if I wont the minimum score for a tma?
It depends on the module assessment strategy.

Some modules just have weighted assignments which allow for you to miss one and make it up with the others-always submit something though if you can.

If there is a minimum threshold for the assignment you may be given an opportunity to resubmit or it may mean you fail the module.

As GabiAbi84 stated, it depends on the module assessment strategy.

Some assessment of the modules is weighted as such which allows you to compensate for a low score, i.e if the next TMA is worth 40%. So this means if you get a good score, you overall module weight score goes up.
