    You repeat exams that you failed in the Christmas exams at the same time as doing your Summer exams

    Jesus you'll be doing another 5 exams/assessments ontop of what you have to do in the summer. First year or not you have a bit of a task ahead of you.

    Work hard, perhaps go to an exam and you might just make it to second year

    Sometimes I cant wright what I want to say without risk of bannage so ill just show my frustration through the medium of art neveu

    No august repeats.

    As all have said all summer.

    I'm guessing you may not have done some of your continuous assessment either - you'll have to do that too.

    This may seem to be presumptious and rude but OP, what have you been doing since you got to college?

    Are you sure? When I deferred my Christmas exams two years ago and did them in summer instead, the written exam counted for 100%.

    This also may sound presumptious but ucd + arts usually means tokin the good stuff:rolleyes: which also leads to repeats. All part of student life (for many art students anyway lol)

    I think if you've handed in all the assessments and repeat the exams the exam is worth 100% but if you haven't handed in the continuous assessment the grade is an incomplete and you have to sit the continuous assessment.

    your obviously not an Arts student. The entire system has changed with near weelky assessment and 2 sets of exams. But then again if that was true your jokie wouldnt be funny.

    So in reality Arts Students are waster lololololo :rolleyes:


    And your statement that All Arts Students are Drug addicts ffs. When you finish your junior cert come and have a look aw UCD

    I'm just going to pretend the last 3 posts in this thread didn't happen. Oh look, they didn't.

    Bear in mind, the powers that be do, in fact, read boards. So don't ask a question here that you wouldn't ask at the student desk.

    banana-were-cat, that kind of behaviour is silly. As is your username. Stop it.

    I thought failing more than 4 modules over the combined 2 semesters meant you had the joy of repeating the whole year? Seriously though how do you manage to f*ck up that much in your first semester? :confused:
