Information for Cambridge English candidates who are unhappy with their exam results.
If you are unhappy with the result of your exam and you wish to query your results, please discuss this with your exam centre. If you are still unhappy, they can submit a Results Enquiry on your behalf.
There are two stages to this process.
- Stage 1 - A full clerical recheck (does not apply to the Speaking test). We will check that all of the marks and final calculation of grades are correct. At this stage, your exam papers will not be re-marked.
- Stage 2 - A re-mark of written tests (including review of the Listening test where relevant).*
* This excludes the Teaching Knowledge Test (TKT) and YLE.
Your exam centre must submit your Results Enquiry on your behalf and they will guide you through the process. There is a charge for each stage, which will be refunded if any change is made to your result. Please speak to your exam centre for information about the costs and time-scales for a Results Enquiry.
- Please note that your grade could go down as well as up following a Results Enquiry, or it could stay the same.
- There are deadlines for requesting Results Enquiries, so you will need to contact your centre as soon as possible after receiving your results.
- Once your centre submits a Results Enquiry on your behalf, you will not be able to view or download your Statement of Results until the Results Enquiry process is completed.
