    Hi guys.
    Just wondering what would happen if I failed an I grade exam that is for 60% of the module?

    Pretty sure you fail the whole year, although it might depend on the module...most require you to pass the exam too.

    Exam is 60% so I would have to pass. Well that's a balls. Do well in everything but due to student administration messing up and getting sick I missed every lecture for this module and now could fail. Nice.

    What's the pass grade? 35%?


    Just look at past exam papers, look at the lecture notes if they're online, try and get them off someone in your class otherwise.


    I don't know what your course is and how difficult it is, but it's not impossible to pass an exam having not gone to any lectures. It's more difficult, certainly, but not impossible.

    Have them and got some notes. Just freaking out a bit.
