    Why don't you talk to the course director rather than asking here? Their information is very likely to be more reliable.

    I think it's done on a case by case basis.

    Depends how many modules you need to repeat and which ones...

    Talk to your Year Head. (hopefully you won't have many to repeat!!)

    Don't worry - you'll be fine with a little bit of elbow grease...!

    Just don't fall into the trap of missing lectures for the first three months due to hangovers!

    Personally for computing I'd advise attendence to all lectures - there's not so many that you can't still enjoy yourself in the meantime and it saves an awful lot of pain and heartache when you have to try and catch up on lectures you've missed come exam time!!

    You may find it a bit of a challenge but that's what you should be in university for! If you don't want a challenge, then you're better off working in McDonalds! ;) I doubt it pays as well though - some of our graduates are being offered up to €30K from companies (IBM offer more!) so it's worth it!

    Best of luck!
