Results review

How do I request a review of my results? 

If you have read and considered the reasons for failure in the failing a subject page and believe your grade is not a reflection of your efforts, please read the information below. 

Seek feedback 

If you have any queries about your mark, you should initially seek feedback by speaking to your subject coordinator about the reasons for your grade in that particular subject. 
 
These discussions can help you understand your overall result; they are not an opportunity to request that your exam paper be re-marked or that your mark be adjusted. 
 
If you have performed below expectations in an exam and wish to view your paper, you may do so by requesting a script viewing session. Some Departments, Schools and Faculties have official script viewing sessions for each subject. If your subject does not have an official viewing session, contact the subject coordinator. 

Seeking a review

Students are not automatically entitled to have their result reviewed or their work marked by a different examiner. You should first seek feedback on your mark.

If after receiving feedback you believe there has been an error in academic judgement by an examiner, you may request a review of the result. The chair of the Board of Examiners (BoE) may determine whether the original mark was correct. If your assessment task is remarked, the grade may increase, decrease or stay the same. 

A request for review must be made within 10 business days of the result being published. 

If the chair of the BoE determines that the original mark was correct, the result will not be reviewed further. Decisions based solely on academic judgement by an examiner or the BoE cannot be appealed through the complaint or grievance or a student appeals processes.
