Normally 10 credits(2 subjects) but it varies, as standardisation across third level courses is terrible in general. Knowing DIT, your course director is probably able to "fix" these rules depending on how badly they need your money.

Hope this helps...

I'm doing IBL and i've been told that you must have at least 35% to get compensation. And you need twice the amount you need to pass in another subject.

So say i have 35% in management. I need to have 50 % in another exam to take 5% and put it onto management.

And its only for one subject for us.
