Post by: eleven11 on November 06, 2009, 01:57:07 am

Yeah i know aye!! V pay soo much to these POMS and they give us nothin but our "real" marks....

I'm sure they don't  give the papers back because they haven't actually gone through our paper! They need more monies to check thru our papers!!
I heard that v hav to pay to get our papers back..! I'm telling ya these ppl charge us for anything...

Some students payed for the rechecking and still got same result..but there hav been many who got much better grades than b4!! Which shows that they don't check properly the 1st time!  >:( ??? :-\ :(

Well Easy answered. Imagine the costs involved in paying for postage and handling in the attempt to send ur exams back to you. CIE is an international examination and that means exams would have to be sent from your school to be marked in the UK (a huge cost) then located sealed, and sent, individually back to you in where ever in the world you live. It's not like they can keep the cost down like they do when sending them (Exam scripts) all together to be marked, instead individually sending them back is a massive expense.

They dont need to do that. They can be scanned and returned electronically.

I guess it's to prevent more and more questions being posed to them which may cause trouble and who knows? Recycled, perhaps?
