Requesting a supervised physical viewing of the exam?

[Mehrgan]

Hi there,
Is there any official term used for the situation I've given the tilte for? I hear we could also 'request a check', but just wondered if there was any specific term for it.





Thanks in advance.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you mean that you would ask to see an exam paper in advance, but you want the viewing to take place under supervision?

I can't imagine trying to ask that question, mainly because I can't imagine any situation where someone would be allowed to see an exam paper before the exam.

Oops! Just forgot to complete the question! So sorry!!!

That's meant to refer to a situation when you believe the mark you've got is wrong or unfair. Definitely you'd rquest a check, and I wanted to know if there was any term for this action.



Thanks again!

According to the University of Galway, it's a recheck. See the "After the exam" section at the bottom of the page here.
