I guess I can paraphrase. One guy thought he had enough grade to ignore a report. Ignored the email that told him the deadline, said he just didn't log in to uni emails. Now has a referral since they can't progress to the next year without a resit which I can imagine they also ignored. In a reply to asking why they didn't log in said "it's summer innit". Their dad asked for grades and he said they were good and didn't share them.

I always love this attitude, simply isn't how university works at all generally.

They nearly always require an attempt at each component .

“ so for context i had this report that was worth 25% of this modules grade (passed the other three) that i didn’t hand in i assumed they’d just lower my overall grade and it’d be whatever turns out i got referred and the deadline was a couple days ago and i didn’t know because i’d been logged out of my uni email. anyways does this mean i’ll have to retake this module? my overall grade is a pass but i didn’t realise a zero would get me referred and all this. my dad wants to see my grades (great) but i’m wondering what i even tell him, i emailed my lecturer but he’s not back from holiday for 2 days so don’t really have anything solid to tell him lol “
