REGULATIONS FOR RESIT CANDIDATES
Resit candidates must complete Papers 01 and 02 and Paper 03 of the examination for the year for
which they re-register. A candidate who rewrites the examination within two years may reuse the
moderated School-Based Assessment score earned in the previous sitting within the preceding two
years.
Candidates are no longer required to earn a moderated score that is at least 50 per cent of the
maximum possible score; any moderated score may be reused.
Candidates reusing SBA scores in this way must register as ‘Resit candidates’ and provide the previous
candidate number. (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 pre-slip if a candidate’s moderated
SBA score is less than 50 per cent).
Resit candidates must be registered through a school, a recognised educational institution, or the
Local Registrar’s Office.
