you CAN repeat the written exam in august and still pass the module, you will however need to attain a grade high enough to compensate for the failure in the CA.

For example:

If your subject is 60/40 exam/ca and you got 0 marks in the CA.

you can pass the module if you manage to get 70% in written exam as this will give you 42% overall.

Depends on the course.

In theory, the maximum compensation is 5%, (i.e. the absolute minimum mark in any one element of the module would be 35%) however I've always found that with my particular course, the above is in fact true.
