Here is how to Apply for the Re-mark/Re-check of Matric Exams Scripts: Did you know that candidates can apply for the re-mark/re-check of their examination scripts at a prescribed fee? You can view your results, make corrections, or recheck them.
In most education systems, candidates have the option of requesting a regrade or reexamination of their exams for a fixed fee. This process allows candidates to review their results, make corrections where necessary or seek a re-evaluation of their performance.
Candidates who may be dissatisfied with their previous results or who believe there may be errors in the grading process may choose to regrade or reverify. This involves a thorough review of the exam by examiners to ensure that grading is done correctly and fairly.
It is important that candidates are aware of the specific procedures, deadlines and fees associated with requesting a regrade or reexamination. While this option provides an avenue for candidates to seek fairness and accuracy in the evaluation process, it is important to note that the outcome of resetting grades is not always guaranteed to result in a change in grades.

Here is additional details based on my knowledge of the NSC exam process in South Africa:
- The NSC exams are the national high school exams that are written by all Grade 12 learners in South Africa.
- Re-marking and re-checking are two different processes. Re-marking involves a new examiner marking the entire exam script, while re-checking involves the original examiner checking their marking for any errors.
- Learners who are unhappy with their exam results can apply for a re-mark or re-check. However, there is no guarantee that their results will change.
- If a learner’s results do change after a re-mark or re-check, they will be issued with a new statement of results.
