    Hi, i had failed a subject in 1st year that i know i can't pass even in repeat exam, so what i want to know is will i be allowed to progress to 2nd year if i take the subject as evening course?

    also will this affect my grant renewal.

    Thanks.

    If its just one module you will be able to go onto second year and do a repeat exam at christmas on top of your 2nd year exams.

    As for the grants im not sure, you could try ringing the college, im sure its a common question

    What do you mean you can't pass in repeat? - not prepared enough?

    Why don't you get grinds. I'd put the effort in and do my best if I were you.

    On the Same boat as your Self failed a Module that i know i wont get a pass in the repeat as he never show us what he is giving us.

    by any chance are you in one of the Computing Course?

    I did the repeats and i was told i need 55 credits to go to stage 2 (year 2) while carrying a faild module

    But i think i might have done bad in one fo the repeats which puts me to 50 credits. I wonder can i beg my way in?:)

    Talk to your department head or lecturers. No point asking here as you'll ultimately have to be talking to them anyways.
