Hi Anna
Which board do you use? We had a student last year entered with OCR as an external candidate to resit one of the written papers without any problem. I think the only issue would be if it was one of the coursework
units.

Hi everyone
Has anyone ever had an occasion when a student who has certificated an Applied Health and Social Award, then requests to do a resit of a particular unit to try and increase their grade to get into a particular uni.
I am in this situation at the moment and rang the board to check that it was open to External candidates and asking what I had to do about registration and following a check with the assessment team the man returned to say he was told they
were not allowed to do a resit. I am sure we have in the past but I cant be 100%. Even the man on the support desk said it was strange. Has anyone had this situation/know the answer to this query as like the man on the service team, think it’s a bit
strange
Many Thanks
Anna
