    I see on the reviewing scripts form they mention that it's possible to request a copy of all your scripts under GDPR. Just wondering how this would work? Would it be photocopies or the original? What about orals?

    Photocopies.

    They will send a tape with your oral BUT the examiners questions will be cut out of the recording, it will just be your voice.

    This however will not be delivered until after recheck closing date, so its no use really other than curiosity.

    Also if you are viewing scripts, you are permitted to take a digital devise into the viewing session to take photos of your scripts

    How does the HEAR point system work?

    I am still a few points short of what my no. 1 choice was last year. (12 points off)
    I qualify for HEAR. How many extra points will i get and when? Will they let the CAO know before Monday?

    Congrats...that's a very good score :)
    Delighted by my 601 ( i hope its enough for trinity )

    Repeating was definitely worth it for me!

    Nobody will get the points early. They will be published in the papers as usual.

    We have the points watch every year. Usually someone gets their hands on an early paper and scans or photographs it.

    Be careful. There is always some clown who posts 'fake news' here.

    Yes that's what I meant sorry. By early, I meant if someone has the paper early and attached a photo of the points!

    I dont think you need the pin to appeal. Correct me if im wrong though!

    I've been looking at the rules for viewing/appealing papers and it says you need to log in using your examination number and pin number in order to make a request to appeal. Otherwise you have to send in the money before you even view the papers

    The deadline is 5th September. It is that late so that you have a chance to view the scripts first.

    Where are you seeing you have to send money if you don't have your exam number?

    It says you can get a giro form if you can't use the online system. It specifically points out that you need to get it in time to send it back. You don't have to send it before you see the scripts.

    Yes but it also says that to ensure the SEC recieves the giro form on time, it's recommended that you send it before you view the scripts.

    It says if you don't pay online, you have to pay in the bank and get the form to the school on Monday the 3rd to be sure it gets to Athlone.
    The viewings are the previous Friday and Saturday.

    I'm really not seeing the issue.

    Sorry I must have misread it! My mistake :3

    Nevertheless it would be much more convenient to make an appeal online. Maybe I could get my PIN number from my school?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 27,139 CMod ✭✭✭✭spurious


    Yes of course you can. Any school I know keeps records of the PIN letters as they know people forget/lose them.

    What was the general feeling on Irish? Was it marked hard or not?
