How the result is worked out

A candidate passes when every paper reaches its pass mark. Their score is the average of the papers. The result stays pending until every paper has a score.

Overriding a result

For example after a remark: choose Override: pass or Override: not passed in Overall result, type the Reason for the override and press Save results. The result then shows (overridden).

What you will see

  • Pass or Fail next to each paper once you save.
  • The Result column in the candidate list, for example Pass · 68.
