Statement of marks - I feel jibbed - What should I do?

[playsimme]

Alright I received my statement of marks.
For question 3, I got 0/4 possible marks.. which means both examiners marked me 0. I don't get it, I wrote state-dependent and context-dependent cues and explained them both so I thought I would've got the 2 marks.. or at least 1/2 at least if I forgot to relate it back to the question.
Also I clearly remember writing 'brief eye movement or if something blocks the radar' for question 9b, and it was wrong.. both examiners marked me wrong again
Should I order my script and if it's wrong will it get remarked? I feel a little jibbed but I'm pretty happy otherwise, should I just leave it?
Thanks

@ssNake, if you have no helpful advice, stop hijacking threads with your issues.

@playsimme, you could always arrange an inspection of your exam, but IIRC VCAA generally do not change your marks unless there's been a significant error (e.g. the examiners have missed a page or something). Speak to your teacher about it, also you might want to contact VCAA to ascertain what their policy is on this.

Thankyou! it's weird because I got marks on the questions I thought I bombed but lost significant ones on the questions I thought I nailed. I'll definitely ask my teacher and get her opinion.

Really should encourage people to inspect their exams. They only say that so students are reluctant to get an inspection.

[playsimme]

For the question where I got 0 marks from each examiner, do you think they would've missed the question, maybe due to the new scanning procedure or something? Because I spoke to my teacher after the exam and she said state and context dependent was right.. Is this missing a question a possibility due to the new marking scheme or am I being paranoid

Seems like you got two 'bad' examiners

...and nah, they wouldn't have missed the whole question. That's wishful thinking.

[nemolala]

if you got it wrong then i could have gotten it wrong. i could be just a few marks from A+. what the hellllllll i can't understand why you would get 0.

if i get my exam rechecked, and mistakes were found with their marking...lol do i get them marks or what?

[REBORN]

Just to put it into perspective I got 1/2 for that question and 2/2 and I wrote word-to-word definitions + encoding specificity principle.

Seems like they marked it like a bitch.....you'll not get any more marks for it.

[playsimme]

I put word to word definitions too, were they all pissed off marking it or something? I mean come on. Oh snake did you refer to the scenario at all?

[REBORN]

Of course I did...you integrate the word-to-word definition into the scenario + add extra (encoding specificity principle)

and I still got 3/4.

sigh. such is life.

how can you tell if they missed a  page if there's no marking on the paper ninwa?

I got 2/4 on the easiest SA question in the whole exam

1a)
only question on the page, maybe one examiner missed it?

[nemolala]

hmm so how can i get my exam rechecked as in what are the procedures? now i am seriously doubting if my A was fair.
also for extended, reckon that if my handwriting is considered messy to them, i would have lost some marks too?

[REBORN]

Your essay will never be changed.

If two examiners disagree by a certain limit it goes up to a higher ranked examiner and then higher and higher...until the chief assessor himself marks it.

Same, I just wanna find my teacher's opinion when we go through my script. I still don't get how putting two perfect definitions which are obviously the right answer warrants a 0/2 from BOTH examiners. Even if I forgot to fully relate back to the question.. it should be 1/2. Either they both hate messy writing or missed the page.. and idk I hope so..

[nemolala]

uggggh god how annoying. i thought these people are out to give us marks -.-

anyway i wasn't referring to what i wrote, i just meant that just incase they thought my handwriting was like unreadable ...and penalise me for it :/
