there were 6 of us took ours through our local college and after three months waiting I went down there today to see if my results had been lost in the post. NOT! was the resounding reply. All 6 are being remarked for some reason unknown. The results sre due on the 26th September the very morning I fly to Egypt for what was supposed to be a well earned RELAXING BREAK!! Nearly 4 months for results. -------s.

The lunatics have taken over the asylum. No wonder failure rates are so high.

The centre recieves a sheet with candidates on who are sitting the exam.

For the last exam, I had late entries. You send a copy of the sheet, with all of the exam papers to be marked, back to your deisgnated marking centre. The centre/collge keeps a copy of this sheet. With my late entries I manually wrote them in on the sheet.

Therefore:- I have an exact record of the students who sat the exam, and a record of which exam papers i sent for marking. The marking centre will have the other copy, which is their record of what they have recieved.

So there is an auditable trail for this.

Your college should be able to pull up their copy, to prove they sent the paper.

If they havent, then they are at fault, (and will probably still have the paper somewhere). If they can prove they sent it, then the marking centre (normally a regional university) is at fault.

Dont let them fob you off fella!

The possible reasons given, for the alleged re-mark, are our papers had been marked too loosely, too harshly or by someone who was new to the marking game and they have to be checked. but if this re-marking is planned why do I have to wait THREE MONTHS to discovr that I have to wait another month for my results. If i haven't passed I can't resit 'til December; will I have t wait 'til April for the results of that?? Sorry ; rant over. FA I can do about it

 

[PAUL M]

after a couple more calls to the college they are still waiting to hear back from c&g ,they reckon there is a whole batch that they gotta find knowing my luck somebody probably took mine home to mark it and his dog wiped his arse on it.will keep you posted.

I remember when I took my exam for 2391 back in March 2005 come June I kept ringing the college to find out my results. Finally got told by the exam department that I had passed and the certificates would be sent to the campus where I took the exam and should be there in a couple of days.

Went down couple of days later for certificate only to be told there was not one for me, asked why she said she did not know, went and got a the accompanying sheet with the certs and asked did I know any persons on the list to which I said yes but he was on the other course to me.

When looking at it closer the people who had passed on my course there was only had one pass next to our names where the other course had two passes when asked by lady did I know why I said the was a practical and theory exam for the cert, turns out there was no results for our practical exam part.

I finally got my certificate in August when I asked what had happend it turned out that the lecturer had marked the practical part and put them on the desk of another person who was supposed to verify that they where correct but turns out they had been filed away by some prat instead.

Needless to say my language was a bit choice on finding this out.

Cheers Flukey! you're not wrong. As each day passed the pessimism grew stonger but Now i'm feeling a leeetle bit smug!! until I make a monumental cockup and realise that Everyday Is a School Day!! Ian when you say your language was a bit choice, did you say " FLICK!!!" out loud? I did . The exam isn't cheap and the marking process to us is very secretive so we assume it is thorough but succinct and to the point. sorry, but I'm not convinced.
