I sat three of the five units of my Holistic diploma course in March and unfortunately received a Fail for my Indian Head Massage whilst receiving a Credit and a Destinction in the other two. I couldn't for the life of me , think of what had gone wrong, so I decided to Appeal to City & Guilds on their decision. I paid £25 to have the paper remarked and get a full report sent to me, and low and behold, 2 weeks later received a phone call to tell me that on the re mark, I had actually received a PASS!!! They have torn up the cheque and now I no longer have to resit the exam for obvious reasons.I just wanted to share with all of you fellow sufferers, that sometimes examining bodies DO get it wrong and if you feel that you should have passed your exam, CHALLENGE THEM!! APPEAL!!! What have you got to loose, ok, I know £25 you may say, but even if the decision still stands, at least you will get a full report on just went wrong and it may just help you next time.
Good luck !
RE: Failed your exam? There is still hope!
OPPPPS! Forgot to mention, you only have about 60 days I think to lodge your appeal, so if you're gonna do it, dont delay! Just go to [link= http://www.city&Guilds.co.uk ]www.city&Guilds.co.uk[/link] and get the phone number and give them a call. They will email you the relevant papers as if you go through your college, they will charge you £13 pounds administration and this is unnecessary as you can do it all yourself!
