    Hey Guys, I hope someone can help me with this, it's really worrying me. I'm currently in 2nd year.
    So what happens if I get 4 or more E grades, I know I can't compensate for more than 3, but with 4, do I have to do semester x, or repeat the year, or can I continue into 3rd year as normal and do the repeats at Christmas?
    Also if I can continue into 3rd year with the repeats what happens with the grant?
    I can't find any real information anywhere!
    Please help!! :o

    You can compensate if your GPA is high enough. From what we were told, you are able to continue on still carrying a module, you could be in final year and still be carrying a first year module and not be able to graduate until you pass it!

    Not sure how it works in medicine or whatever you're doing, it could be completely different for all I know! But thats as much as I remember from our science talk... Hope it helps!

    Email your course cordinator because it varies from course to course and module to module.

    In the compensation thread last week, I posted this.
