The examiners knew that I faced difficult personal circumstances and that I was unwell in the run-up to the examinations. What evidence do I need to persuade them to raise the award they have made?
If they already know of your circumstances it is unlikely that more detailed information will assist them. It is not possible for the examiners to judge the impact of your particular circumstances on your performance or to measure this against the circumstances of another student. All they may do is consider whether your performance was close to the grade you hoped to achieve and whether previously you had demonstrated achievement at that grade. If however, you wish the paper or the assignment to be removed from the calculation of your overall performance you must provide very detailed evidence in the form of a medical report. To remove a paper without good reason may provide one candidate with unfair advantage.
