4. Assessment

4.10. Examination results

Provisional examination and final written assessment results are returned to you a few weeks after the end of the examination period via MySIS. If you have any questions about your results, you should contact your Advisor in the first instance, who will be happy to speak with you and discuss your marks. Your Advisor can obtain additional feedback from the marker about your performance to discuss with you. 

Confirmed examination results are released once they have been approved by the Subject Examination Board, normally in July for semester A and B examinations and September for the late summer examinations.

The School has rigorous academic and quality control procedures when marking final assessments. All exams and final written assessments are double marked or moderated. When the marks are entered on to MySIS a further administrative check is carried out to ensure no mistakes have been made when inputting the data. A sample of the work is sent to an external examiner who moderates the School's assessment processes to ensure they are fair and consistent.
