errr...
passing is not enuf
at least get a b+ as a minimum
that's how i always maintain

time and time again
this all depends on the uni
i dunno about tarc
but other universities allow repeaters to repeat and get an A
for the simple reason that the uni must let them graduate cuz until u pass that subject, u wont be able to grad
and i dunno bout other unis, but mostly even if u fail, if u manage to repeat and get an A, and upgrade ur CGPA beyond the par for honours (usually 3.5 and above).

hmm...
the most important question is why are u even asking the question on the justice to allow students to repeat and get an A

if ur slow, then study smart not study hard
do u really think those who failed are dumb
i begin to think dat way since high school
i never scored a single thing except science,agama islam and english (i was one of the best malay student for english...i mean i speak,write and understands better in english than those malay who stayed overseas all their lives)
but those who didnt score in exams could have scored better outside...in the real world...
thats what we call street smart

smart lawyers arent the one who can argue on laws itself...they are the ones who can manage the case by just go straight forward and essentially know who the judge of the case and make do with so little knowledge they have

smart doctors know what their patients wants and needs...not just administer this and dat drugs based on the rule of the book

smart student would know how to get to the lecturer in exams...not just blabber this and that vomiting what they have learnt all this while

the most basic thing about being smart is to know the most simple way,not the easy way at most times aint simple, but in knowing its simple he embroadens it to reach the objective

it boils back to common sense
i'd prefer a late bloomer in my company than an egoistical brainy ones cuz the latter might not know how to handle people

so live with it
CGPA does reflect who u are
but thats marginally important
priority should be given to ur command in using ur common sense or basically street smart
