    I have a repeat exam on monday and I'm just wondering how it is possible to pass it. I did not do a CA during the year for it so how does it work with grading my repeat paper? (50/50%)

    Do I need to achieve nearly full marks to get a pass ?
    or
    Does your CA not count at all if repeating a module?

    You need to ask your lecture all these questions ,
    For instance ,

    I have an exam deferal myself on Monday : I have 10% going into it out of 20%
    My paper is worth 80% which means i need to get 30% of it to pass. 30/80 which means that there is 100marks for the paper , i need to get 37.5 to pass my exam :-)

    Hope that makes sense , and really you should be aware of all this before heading into an exam , I dont think anyone on here will be able to answer your question outright.
