Quick Overview

Found a Mistake? How to Raise an Objection

Sometimes the commission makes a slip-up. If you’re absolutely sure an answer in the provisional key is wrong, you have the right to challenge it. Here is how:

• Log back into your candidate portal.
• Navigate to the 'Objection/Challenge' section.
• Select the specific question you think is marked incorrectly.
• Upload any reference material (textbooks or official documents) to back up your claim.
• Pay the nominal processing fee if required and hit submit.

Important Tip: Don't wait until the last minute. Once the objection window closes, they won't entertain any further requests, no matter how valid they are.

How to Calculate Your Expected Score

Use this simple formula to get a rough estimate of your performance:

Score = (Number of Correct Answers × 1 Mark) - (Number of Wrong Answers × 0.25 Marks)

Remember, leave your unattempted questions out of the calculation, as they carry zero marks.
