Hi

Just did an exam as part of a level 8 Acconting course. I'm in my final year. My CA score going into the exam was 74%. With a 30% weighting. However I had a very very bad exam. Pure panic job! Iam likely to fail it.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with this type of thing. If I got in the 30's in the exam do I fail overall and have to repeat even though my overall mark including CA will be over 40%?

Thanks

It depends on the course, without such information, there is no point on speculating.

The course guide should detail the must-pass components (if any), along with the associated components and weightings.
