Failed a Final Year exam

spartan5397 · 2016-02-15 21:24:58

Hey all, Failed my first ever exam and it was in my final year unfortunately. Just wondering what happens now, If i repeat the exam will my overall graduation mark be a bare pass or can i make up for it in my other subjects? I need to obtain at least a Merit 2 upon graduation.

Depends on which college. But usually you resit exam and you get 40% provided you pass the exam. This will reduce your overall average but provided its only one you should do OK.
