Question: My son has been entered for Mathematics but it does not appear on his timetable.
How can the correction be made?
Answer: If a subject does not appear on the candidate’s timetable it means that he is not
registered for that examination. By the time the timetable is issued, it is too late for subjects to
be added or for any registration amendment to be effected. We suggest Candidates are
advised that when registration is in progress that they request from the school/centre a copy of
their registration details (available in the Subjects Registered Report in the Online Registration
System) so that the information may be checked and confirmed prior to the deadline date. All
queries about the registration of candidates should be addressed first to the school/centre for
onward transmission to the CXC Local Registrar.

Question: How may I obtain past question papers?
Answer: Past question papers are usually sold at popular bookshops in the various territories.
Past question papers may also be purchased at the Receptionist’s Desk at the Council’s
Headquarters in Barbados or its Offices in Jamaica. Multiple Choice question papers are not
available for purchase.

Question: I believe that I should have gotten a higher grade in my French examination. How
can I query or seek a review of the results?
Answer: A candidate attending a school or full-time educational institution is required to
complete the appropriate form at the school. A candidate at a private centre (educational
institutions not recognised by the Council as a full-time educational institution) must complete
the form at the centre or at the office of the CXC Local Registrar. Local Registrars must forward
all forms to CXC by the specified deadline. Only requests for a script review (i.e. a remarking of
the script) attract a fee. General enquiries into results are free of charge.
