The term ‘special consideration’ sometimes is used in universities to cover arrangements including supplementary examinations, extended assessment deadlines, make-up tasks and averaging of marks. The Board of Studies does not offer ‘special consideration’ in its examination programs. The Board’s special examination provisions are practical arrangements for students who wouldn’t otherwise have a fair go at an exam paper.
