 REGULATIONS FOR RESIT CANDIDATES

Resit candidates must rewrite Papers 01 and 02 of the examination for the year for which they re-
register. These candidates may elect not to repeat the School-Based Assessment component provided
they rewrite the examination no later than two years following their first attempt.

Candidates may reuse any moderated SBA score within a two-year period. 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% in a particular
Unit. Candidates reusing SBA scores should register as “Resit candidates” and must provide the
previous candidate number when registering.

Resit candidates must be entered through a school, approved educational institution or the Local
Registrar’s office.
