    With the way things stand at the moment with my results it could be possible I mite have to repeat first year.
    1. If I have to repeat the year, would I be exempt from the subjects I passed all ready. In semister 1 I failed 1 out of 6 and this semister failed 3 out of 5.

    My course is tourism btw

    Yes, you are exempt from the subjects you have already passed, but you do have to pay full repeating fees.

    If you repeat externally I think you don't have to pay the full registration fee, but yea you should be exempt from the modules you have passed.

    Repeat externally means you can't go to the lectures, you just study yourself at home or whatever and sit the exams or do the assignments etc..

    You can ask the lecturer if you can sit in on their classes, but they don't have to let you if they don't want to.

    The head of the course, Olivia Freyne (who the op probably has as a lecturer too) is very lenient on this in her lectures, but also lets students repeating externally join in with other classes too. It wouldn't matter to the lecturers anyway.
