It will be considered, alongside any other module. But I don’t see this being an issue if you other module grades are consistent and a solid/strong 2.1 or above

do most firms care about first year grades though eventhough u have resat a module in first or would they just look at ur overall grade in ur second and third year?
Yes - many firms will still care about first year grades, especially if you are only in your first or second year. They become less relevant the more years of study you have afterwards, but they will still be looked at.

you know how most firms want a 2:1 overall and l got a 2:2 in first year cuz of a resit as well as first year results still going to be looked at, can ur 2nd and 3rd year grades still save you from it?

do most firms also ask you to list each modules or do they ask you to what u got in each year?
