For students who opt to read GER1000 beyond his/her first academic year of study, they may use the 12 MCs of S/U, which can be used at any time during the student's candidature.

Repeat Module

As GEQ1000 and GER1000 are the only modules offered under their respective GE pillars, students who attained a F/CU/U grade will have to re-read the module in another Semester. The module will NOT be automatically pre-allocated; students would have to send in an appeal if s/he wishes to re-read the module in a particular Semester.
