    Bad grade in module

    Hiya, I've only just finished my first year and received a 45 in criminal law, my other grades ranged from 67-79. I was obsessing over this 3rd grade but it seems that, hopefully, for most firms it's not hugely problematic. Any updates on your journey would be welcomed!
