And will the universty be very strict in passig international students? And do you guys have any idea how much modules I can reset ? And even if I reset asigle module will I not get a MSc ?
Hi Swetha,
If you pass a module you will get the full credit for it - it doesn't matter if you pass with 50% or 85%. The fact that you're an international student shouldn't make any difference. You need to produce work of the same quality as everyone else in order to pass. Some lecturers are more tolerant than others of grammatical errors by non-native speakers of English. If you resit modules and pass them, you will get your MSc. You will need to check your university's regulations to see whether there is any limit on the number of modules you can resit. At the university where I work, students can resit every module once. If they fail the resit, then they may be kicked out or if they are lucky allowed to try for a post-graduate diploma rather than a masters. Your university probably has some kind of writing support service for international students. You should go and talk to them if you're worried about failing.
