I have most of a stats assignment due in two days. I'm a real lazy tnuc when it comes to studying.
I only did 4 out of 7 parts because I hadn't read the appropriate lecture notes.

What does it mean to get it capped exactly?

I'm having this conversation tomorrow, but it seems like the deadline for mine is not hard.
Probably not eligible for resubmission though.
Seems like I have to ask about all these things via e-mail, there's no documents I'm aware of.

Generally the maximum mark you can receive is capped, usually it is 40% or whatever the lowest pass mark is.

It's generally a bad idea, most essays even pretty poor ones do better than 40% unless the person writing it answers a different question.
