Nope, you repeat in August. So you still attend college from February onwards.

Try to avoid them, I had two last year and it ruins the end of your summer tbh.

I'm assuming that you lose your "2:1" status once u fail a January exam and only get awarded a "PASS" degree?

Would i be better to defer?

You fail one January exam in which you could defer, college said I could due to my circumstances and in trying to make the effort to sit it then you get squeezed.

It's hardly a fair system.
