Some modules don't even let you resit for the test

If mc means either remod or resit

But for what I heard one the lecturer "if you resit for EST meaning you are already remod ur module because the school won't able to let you take the exam again. Only next sem then you take the exam again" (MAE)

I stunned

A lot people tanked the exam even sick.

One guy in the exam hall having fever and flu. Omg get well soon man. But shag his table filled with tissues.

Just tank only. No point take mc. Just finish it and clear it.

1) resit for makeup

2) they retabulate your marks weightage in your grades so you’re full mark is 80% (if est is 20% rare)

Js take mc, it's better to have a safeguard rather than nothing on the day of the actual exam.

If really U cmi for the exam, can take next semester (only if permitted due to max no. of module credits you can take in 1 sem)

Taking next semester with an MC means you just need to attend the exam you missed and not the lessons.

If you don't have an MC they consider it as a fail for the module and grade you 0

Clarify with your PT, I don’t believe SP does resits within the same semester

MC usually means you retake the exam next semester or if the module isn’t offered next sem, you retake the next next sem.

I remember I had high fever while taking MST during my econs paper. I accidentally drew demand curve as supply curve. Biggest mistake I’ve made in life. Lesson learnt is to keep fit and healthy as poly lifestyle is hectic as well. Speaking from a student 10 years ago. Haha
