Section outline

  • 1. Resits:

    Your first attempt at the assessment for a given module is known as a First-Sit. If you do not pass a module on the first attempt, you are only entitled to one resit attempt for each module. Your Resits must be taken at the first available opportunity and you will be automatically registered for any resits you are entitled to. If you opt out of a resit or fail to attend the examination you will forfeit any further opportunity to resit the module.

    The Late Summer Resit (LSR) period is in August and is available for all students and all modules in all years, including final year modules. If resits are taken in the following academic year, semester A module exams are scheduled in January and Semester B module exams are in May/June. It is important that you make no holiday, flight, employment or other arrangements that might interfere with a possible LSR or your revision for it. If you fail to attend an LSR this will still count as one attempt and could end your resit allowance for that module.

    Your resit exam timetable will be provided by the Exams Team in advance, similar to how it's provided in semesters 1 and 2. Additionally, you'll be given access to the QMplus  resit page for the module you are resitting, where you'll submit your work.
