Exam Remarking

[WhoTookMyUsername]

So let's say, very hypothetically, i went to get an inspection of exam script and my teacher agreed i deserved more marks for a certain question(s).
If i was to apply to have it remarked, would they remark the WHOLE paper, or just the questions i am concerned about?


Thanks

remark the whole paper.


except I doubt they would give you a lower score, if they do remark it and they do find you got a higher score than you deserved im pretty sure they'll just keep the score the same.

I wouldn't be swayed too much by the fact that they "strongly recommend" an inspection, they probably say that to all the students.

The entire paper is remarked. You can get a lower score - the chief examiner (or whoever he/she appoints) will mark it without seeing the original score.

Have you seen your script yet? If so, was it an objective, factual error or a "I got 3/4 but we think it was 4/4"?

[Russ]

You can inspect your script without applying for a remark (in fact applying for a remark is a pain because you have to get your principal to sign off on it and it involves tedious paperwork)

I know a 1/2 and 0/2 for that same question and they got 68 and 64.5 respectively.

I don't do Bio but I'm sure there's something you guys are missing. Wait for the Assessor's Report.

If you have a spare $20, I don't see why you're not getting your script inspected...

I don't think 2) can happen in any case

If 5) is true (and it should be for your score!), then why this thread?

i know this isnt a good question for this post but how many marks can you lose to get anything above 45 in bio? (generally)

or 45.. which seems out of reach for me haha..

You'd want to lose no more than about 18 over two hard papers (ie. unit 3 2010/11 standard)
