    Hey everyone, hope everyones exams went well. I'm posting this on behalf of a friend who doesn't have an account here. Just wanted to know, how many subjects are you allowed fail per semester? Also, what happens if you're on Co-op in August when the repeats are on? :eek:

    If your on co-op, you have to take time off work to sit your repeats (some employers might allow study time- ask your hr person). If you fail your repeats you generally have to come off co-op and return to college.

    However if, like it was for me, you fail a second semester module you may be able to stay in your job (if the company is ok with it) and the co-op office may offer you an exemption from doing co-op twice. You need to talk to however it is looks after your course in the co-op office.
