Rechecking

[Ibad Siddiqi]

Hey people,

I appeared for my Pak studies, islamiat and urdu papers in may/june 2010. i had the following grades:
Islamiat A 81%
Pakistan Studies A 89%
Second Language Urdu A 85%

My pak studies and islamiat exams went extremely well and i was expecting A* in both. So do you you think it would make any difference if i gave them back for rechecking?
I mean i got 89 in pakstudies and i heard that as i missed an A* by just one 1%, the paper was probably rechecked.
As for Islamiat, is it possible to get an increase of 9%???
And one more thing, can marks be deducted if the paper is rechecked

Rechecking is a good option but the chances are 50-50!
Reappearing costs almost the same so it entirely up to you.

marks cannot be deducted
you could go for pak.studies recheck but not for islamiyat as you have just crossed A grade boundary
i hope your pak.studies grade would upgraded to A*
best of luck

by the way there are three types of rechecking in cambridge and you must have gathered complete information about the ways before you send your paper to be re-checked
