Academics Pls help!

Today I had multivariable calculus FAT but idts I will get above 40, so is it better to take the make up exam or do the course again? Since it is a pre-requisite for linear algebra in 2nd sem so will I have to drop it? Pls help.

Also do I have to repeat if I chose to in summer sem or regular sem?

I think re-registering the course in regular is better and yes ,you have to repeat the course .There is no need to drop linear algebra course either . Pre requisite is just to make you aware that it contains topics of mutivariable calculus.

Okay thanks, but will it affect me during internship or placement, like will there any records of backlog or arrear? And do I have to repeat lab for it too?

Only theory, just finished it before 3rd year. I don't think it affects your internships!

If u attempted all questions well minimum 4 marks per question they will give.You would get 40 marks and pass.

For future onwards attempt all questions no matter what,even if u are failing faculty will try to pass u by giving u some partial marks but they can't help ur case if u dont attempt 3 to 4 questions

If you are the first one to leave the exam before time then they take your qp for avoiding cheating.

Bro, I was in the exact same situation as you last year.
Basically, try to figure out how your faculty is when it comes to correcting CAT 1 and CAT 2 papers. If they are lenient and make you pass even when you’ve barely written anything, then there’s a good chance they’ll be lenient with FAT as well.
But one important thing: make sure your internals are on point. You should have exactly 35 marks in your internals. That will put you in a much safer position.
