Candidates who sat this year's CSEC and CAPE exams have until November 15 to submit requests to the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) to query or review their grades.
Results for the exams and the Caribbean Certificate of Secondary Level Competence were released yesterday evening.
In a news release, CXC said candidates who were not graded can request an investigation free of cost.
Queries can be submitted through schools or the Ministry of Education.
CXC says candidates who attended an examination but were marked absent and those may have questions about a grade and would like to have a script reviewed can also submit a request.
However, CXC says a script review may result in an overall grade either increasing or remaining the same.
If the review results in an increase in the grade, the candidate will receive a refund of the US$30 fee.
