im considering repeating my final year
Ive fucked up majorly, have had alot to deal with in 2005 and ive got too far behind. In year 1 and 2 i was mainly getting marks of at least 60% (normally late 60's). Which means i am capable of a 2:1
This year im in the 40's. At this rate i will be getting a 3rd. If i have to leave with a 3rd i wont be happy because i know im capable of better. I know it would really depress, and constantly eat me up, me if i had to leave with lower than im capable of.
SO, i thinking of repeating this year if its possible. Anyone know if this is possible? And does anyone know if i will be able to get a student loan for a repeated year?
Any feedback welcome. Of course im not going to jump into anything, i will be seeing my course tutor to discuss things first.

Your university should let you repeat but its up to them, they can be wankers about it if they want to be. But hopefully they will let you especially if you explain that it is for person reasons (I'm not sure what your reasons are but if they can be backed up by documentation e.g. doctors letter if it is health related this may help).
yep i definatly have proof on my doctors records
its worth thinking that most places wont let you repeate your dissertation
I definatly plan on pulling my socks up, but its the last seimester of my last year. All i have left is 3 exams, 1 assignment, and a dissertation. Not enough for me to raise my standards...
but you might be able to get a 2:2. if last year you were getting 2:1's and this year so far you've got 3rds/2:2's then you might be able to average it out. there's no point in thinking you've failed already - you may aswell do your best now.
Yeh im definatly not going to give up until i have some sort of estimate from my course tutor
you'd best not be staying in lincoln ANOTHER year.
stalker. :grump: :crying:
haha it takes one to know one, u saw me first
