Tech error or other difficulty outside of your control during the exam 

  • Report it immediately to the invigilator. If you are able to gather evidence of the error, do so. You may need this at a later date.  

  • Any errors you notice, document this, and contact us   at Union Advice   for independent advice. 

 

Personal difficulties 

  • Didn't perform as you thought you would or was unable to attend, consider submitting an Exceptional Circumstances claim.  

  • You won’t know your results and a claim, if successful, will impact any result that you get once your exam has been reviewed.  

  • Want to go ahead with the claim, make sure that you seek full guidance from the  Student Advice Service before submitting your form.
