u only answered question one (perhaps your forgot to SAVE each question).. therefore you failed because u need at least 7 and that quiz has been dropped... if you have another attept, go ahead and SAVE each question as you go along (u know its saved when the floppy disk is coloured in)

no, no, the "Q's"don't represent questions, they represent quizzes.
I submitted quiz number 1 - the other 10 quizzes aren't to be done this week..
the mark, 10/10 was for quiz #1, yet it still says that I failed...

From what I see, I'm guessing that course allows students to drop atleast 1 quiz. Well, you only HAVE one quiz, so that one is dropped. As soon as you do worse than a 10/10, lets say 8/10, that 80% will be dropped instead. Don't worry about it.

maybe the 'fail' is for the course so far.. because I need to complete 7 quizzes to pass, and I've only completed 1 so far?
.. is that..a possibility?

Oh I see what you mean now! You should ask about it in class, but it looks like that once you get passed 7 quizes, it will start to drop the lowest. I don't know why it would show the dropped one now tho

This also happened for the online quizes for PSYCH 1X03/1XX3. I'm guessing the system does this so it's easier instead of deciding which 2 to drop at the end. It might as well decide which quiz to drop as you go.
