Possible special provision/consideration due to injury???

I had my solo music performance exam yesterday after it was originally scheduled for the 16th of October, but was post-poned because of a thumb injury sustained a few days beforehand.

I hadn't been able to practice until a few days ago and so to say i was happy with my performance would be a complete lie.
I wasn't aware until a friend told me about special considerations that the VCAA have in place and i was wondering what they are and if i am eligible.

My other marks for music have all been A/A+ and i am realistically aiming for almost full marks for the end of year exam. Judging by past experience i think my performance would have been worthy of about a C so you can see the problem here :/
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Derived scores?

About eligibility, I can't comment - but if you're considering applying for one, talk to your VCE coordinator/principal (edit: I've heard your principal is a Goodfellow :P). That probably doesn't seem like much useful information, but in reality you're going to find out the most information about what you can do in you're position through them. I'm pretty sure you have to apply for one through your school anyway.

Some VCAA links relating to it:

Thanks! I'll work it out tomorrow.

Haha... Yeah I've never heard that one before... :P
