Re-marking is only available for work which has not been double marked. If work has been double marked, you may be able to appeal, once the marked is confirmed, if you have a good reason for an academic appeal such as extenuating circumstances.

You cannot ask for an exam or an OSCE or OSPE to be re-marked, even if it has been moderated rather than double marked.

You must make the request within 10 working days of publication of the mark on e:Vision. If you think that the mark has been incorrectly recorded on e:Vision, raise this with LTS so that this can be checked.

If you have grounds for an appeal but instead request a re-mark and are given one, a later appeal could be rejected.

Before you ask for a re-mark, you must ask to see the marker to discuss for the reasons for the mark. If you have discussed the point by email, you can use copies of the emails to prove this. If the marker does not respond to requests for a meeting, you may wish to contact us for some advice.

Once you have determined whether you are eligible for a remark, and feel it is your best option, you should complete form LTS005 on myUEA and send it to your LTS team. If you’re not sure how to contact them, speak to the Student Information Zone.

On the form, you will need to show that one or more of the following reasons applies, and produce evidence that:

1. consistent with the feedback given
2. feedback suggests that part of your submission has not been considered
3. the assessment criteria have not been appropriately applied

The evidence needed might include:

• ent from you quoting the feedback showing that it appears that the marker has failed to mark part of your work, (for example, the feedback says that you did not mention a point that you have covered in your work); or
• a copy of the feedback and a statement from you explaining why it does not address points in your work, giving examples; or
• evidence showing why the marking does not meet the assessment criteria given for the work. This could be a statement from you giving examples of where the marking does not reflect the publish

When your work has been remarked, if there is a difference between the original mark and the second mark, the Director of Learning and Teaching for your School will adjudicate and award a mark. Remember, this could be lower than your original mark.

Looking forward at the year ahead and taking in to consideration your situation now and what additional support might be put in place for you, do you think this coming year will give you a better chance to perform to your best academic ability?

If you have not passed coursework and exams and have been sent to reassessment, you could wait and see how you get on in your reassessments before making the decision.

However, if you take your reassessments and fail them you are likely to be withdrawn from the course (this doesn’t apply to those taking delayed first attempts in August). If you are withdrawn from the course you will need to make an academic appeal against withdrawal in order to request to repeat the year. It might be better to request a repeat year or appeal now and ask for a delayed first sit, if you have grounds.

The appeal process takes 4-6 weeks and if you wait to appeal until you get resit results, there may not be time for you to go through the appeal process following withdrawal from the course to enable you to start studying again in September if your appeal is upheld.

If you find yourself in this situation you may be looking at taking a break in studies before you are able to return for the next academic year.

This can be worrying for some, but we want you to be as informed as possible in order to make the best possible decisions.

Based upon your current situation, if you feel that you are unlikely to perform at your best in this upcoming assessment period and would like to repeat the year then this is an option you should consider. To have a chance of starting a repeat year this September, you would need to start the process of requesting it before the resits.

If you are studying with the financial support of Student Finance in terms of receiving Tuition Fee and Maintenance loans, and you have never repeated a year, you should receive a further year's funding.

We encourage any students considering a break in studies or repeating a year to contact the Student Life Finance team in UEA Student Services who can talk through your options.
