Exam: Recheck or remark

FewFew · 2012-06-20 10:46:15

Just wondering if anybody could tell me the difference between the recheck and the remark. One is €15 the other is €60. Not exactly sure what each does. Is a recheck just a case of "Oh, I entered the wrong number!" and remark is actually going over the whole exam again?

Yeah pretty much.

One of them is just making sure that all your CAs were added up correctly and given the correct weighting, and the other is having the whole exam regraded.

An appeal, is when you accept the result, but feel that some extenuating circumstances, the examiner should have been more lenient. For example, if you are registered as a Disabled Student, and you are entitled to extra time in an exam, but this was denied by the invigilators.

Hope that helps a bit.
