Failed resit by 5% - will I be compensated?

I recently attempted a Resit exam and got 35% with the pass mark being 40%. Will I be compensated for the 5%?

I have already received an enrolment email after I had my resit mark back and have re-enrolled for third year.

I recently attempted a resit exam with the pass mark being 40% and I scored 35%. I’m not surprised as the module was super difficult but I tried my best regardless. Will I be compensated for the 5%?

I received an enrolment email for third year after I received my resit mark and have already re-enrolled for third year. I’m just wondering if you think that they’ll compensate my mark for the sake of 5%

Hi,

I would recommend you speak to your university/ course lead regarding this, as soon as possible. It really depends if your course allows for any modules to be failed. A lot of courses do not allow students to continue to the next year, until they have passed all modules and gained enough credits.
