    Far as I am aware of you can. You will have to pay the repeat fee, it's 100 euro if i'm not mistaken.

    Yes, you have four attempts at repeating a subject.

    Just remember that if you fail to pass the exam in autumn, you will then have to repeat the module and will not progress further until you have that module passed.

    is that 4 years or a total of 8 exams (Summer, Autumn), only asking because a girl in our course took her 5th auditing exam with us last week.

    We've always had it drilled into our heads that we only have 4 attempts, in total.

    Really? 5th? How? Is she carrying it from first year or something?
    Rather her, than me.

    Subjects cannot be carried from this year onwards. Compensation in up to max of two subjects failed 35-39%, you must have double the deficiency in two other subjects to compensate. The days of carrying and progressing are gone. You must now pass ALL subjects (with allowed compensation in up to two) to progress.

    Let's not go down this road Galway. That was a snide post that isn't an attitude I want on this forum. The main rule on here is not to be a dick.
