    Hey.

    You can pick as many as you want, however if both stage 1 and stage 2 credits combined exceed 60 credits you will have to pay a fee (per extra 5 credits).

    I dont know how many 1st year modules you are repeating. Will you have them completed by christmas or do you have to repeat the whole year?

    Say you take 4 stage two modules this year, then next year you will have 20 credits to spare. you could use these to take some 3rd year modules.

    So when you go into 3rd year your work load will be decreased.

    hey, im repeating 4 stage 2 modules this year and am able to pick 5 stage 3 modules for each semester. I am repeating 3 modules in the first semester and 1 in the second. Does that mean if I am doing the 3 repeats + 5 stage 3 modules I have to pay an extra fee or just the fee for the repeats? Thanks

    I think it depends on whether of not they are re0sits or repeats!!!

    If you are registering more than 60credits a notice (in red) will come up under the register button saying "there will be implications regarding fees if you register for this module" or something to that effect.

    I think if your in stage X the fee may not apply as they will see that your electives are assigned to stage 3. I'm not 100% sure though!!!
