Man i wish i kneww this earlier... i gave my ol exams with burnt fingers that got terribly swolen, i was extremely stressed as they were not healing and swelling even more and they were my right hand index finger, thumb and ring finger. I got an A in all my exams at the end of the day but those days were hellish for me and i definitely was at a disadvantage compared to my peers
Bruh I wish I knew this earlier. I gave all my o level exams with Covid. Had the exams in a separate room, away from all the other candidates. Still got all As and A* but studying with Covid was hard af
i found out about this recently as I asked for special consideration for my mocks on the basis of bereavement. In Chemistry, I got a B and they added 3%. Though, they aren’t predicting me a grade up, eventhough i got an A in the last mock :/
Man I'm amazed at how good you're doing with this, I know how challenging it can be as a Zimbo to put yourself on the map😄 But pushai mdara, I wish you all the best
Hey bro, I have a question. I was 15 minutes late for the exam, so my invigilator gave me an extra 15 minutes at the end of the exam. However, the invigilator didn't give me the form that needs to be filled out and attached to the exam paper, which mentions the details of taking extra time and the reason for it. Is that a problem?
if your invigilator/centre allows you to attempt the paper let alone get an extra 15 minutes, consider yourself lucky. Unless there were special reasons as to why you were late.
@@farhhanr I was on time, but outside the exam hall, there were too many candidates waiting in line. Because of that, not only was I late, but many other candidates were late too. By the way, my invigilator didn't give me the paper that explains the reason for giving me extra time. Is that okay?
@@farhhanr It is actually standard procedure according to the cambridge handbook, that IF a candidate arrives late and is allowed to take the exam, they must be given the full time.
I took 3 extra sheets in my O levels exam and the invigilator each time camr to punch it, which wasted my time. At the end, only 5 minutes were left and they came to tie all my papers. I couldn't attempt some marks due to taking my paper from time to time. Can soecial consideration be applied?
Can you please read my comment. I did 3 exams. ESL, chemistry and math. ESL was the easiest thing ever. I don't doubt that I will get less than 90%. That's impossible. But I somehow got a C (70%-79%). I knew right away that it was a mistake. My siblings who study harder than me got lower than E! Is it possible to report this? Because I have clear proof that they made mistakes. Also, I'm confident I didn't make any more than 15 mistakes in both papers of igcse ESL 0510 extended
@GCEALevelMaths9709 But they did that on purpose just so that we pay them money. Because it is impossible that they made a genuine mistake marking my papers and my brother's. I asked many people but no one answered me; how do i ask for a remark? And do you think they will give me the mark I expected?
@@GCEALevelMaths9709 I heard what's possible is getting only one grade higher after remarking. But what we deserve is A, but we got D, E and U. Is it possible they raise our grades that high after rechecking the papers?

@@OAmath-solutions don't worry about it then. it happens a lot in many centers.

@@strawberry-rl6oy Thanks a lot. I was so worried
If I got broken up with a month before the exams would that count or would it be too far fetched?

Does it include illness of a loved one??

If you think they made a mistake in marking your script you request that your papers be remarked.
