    Fortunately, I don't need to review anything. However, I was wondering what if you scraped a course by 5 points and accepted it, but an appeal lowers your grade by 10 points. You won't get kicked out because you've already been accepted, right?

    I don't know the answer but here is what I would think.

    Out of all the papers that get rechecked only an extremely small amount go down a grade. I think one year there was only one or two in the whole country.
    Out of this small percentage you would then need a candidate who would not have enough points for his/her course as a result.
    Small percentage x small percentage = small percentage.
    Very unlikely to happen.
    I'm not sure if they have protocol for this event if it did happen but I cannot see any immediate gain in removing a candidate from their course after fees have been payed and offers accepted etc..
