If I failed this courses should I write a supplementary in about 10 days or should I retake it and put myself behind a full year of studies in my program?
It ultimately depends on your individual situation and what you hope to achieve. If you feel confident that you can improve your grade by studying and reviewing on your own, then retaking the course may be a better option. However, if you struggled with specific topics or concepts in the course, then writing a supplementary exam may be a good opportunity to focus on those areas and potentially improve your overall grade.
A supplementary exam is an opportunity to rewrite a failed exam or assignment in order to improve your grade. A retake, on the other hand, involves retaking the entire course, including lectures, assignments, and exams. Supplementary exams are typically only offered to students who have narrowly missed passing the course, while retakes are available to anyone who wishes to improve their grade.
The eligibility criteria for supplementary exams vary from institution to institution. Generally, you must have narrowly missed passing the course and have a valid reason for not being able to achieve a passing grade. It is best to check with your academic advisor or the department offering the course to determine your eligibility.
It depends on your specific goals and the requirements of the opportunities you are seeking. Some graduate programs or job opportunities may have specific requirements for grades or a minimum number of attempts for a particular course. It is always a good idea to research and consider the potential impact before making a decision.
This also depends on the policies of your institution. Some may allow multiple attempts, while others may have a limit on the number of times you can take a course or write a supplementary exam. It is best to check with your academic advisor to understand your options and the potential consequences of multiple attempts.
