 REGULATIONS FOR RESIT CANDIDATES

For CSEC® candidates, SBA scores can be carried forward only ONCE and only during the year
immediately following the first sitting. In order to assist candidates in making decisions about whether
or not to reuse a moderated SBA score, the Council will continue to indicate on the preliminary results
if a candidate’s moderated SBA score is less than 50 per cent in a particular subject. Candidates re-
using SBA scores should register as “Re-sit candidates” and must provide the previous candidate
number when registering. These resit candidates must complete Papers 01 and 02 of the examination
for the year they register.
