Possible to get our exam papers back? (1 Viewer)

[Patar]

Is it possible in any way to get our exam papers back? I know how secretive Board of Studies are with everything like raw marks.

so I sent them this email:

Dear Board of Studies Customer Service,

I'm a student currently doing my HSC.

I would like to know if its possible, that we could pay to have our actual
exam booklets (what we wrote in the exams) sent back to us via mail -
after they've all been marked and finalised of course.

I'd like to see what I wrote in the exam for English and English Extension
as well as a few others

Would I need to fill out any forms like a Freedom of Information thing or
something?

Thanks for your time

-Patrick

Dear Patrick

I am sorry, but students are not permitted to review their examination
scripts.

Should you require further information, please call me on 02 9367 8230.

Kind regards,

Has anyone else been more successful or know of any way to acquire our scripts through FOI somehow ?

Please move this to the right forum if I placed it wrongly.

It is very misleading of them to suggest that you have no right to review your scripts when you specifically referred to FOI in your email.

i sent them a request for photocopies of the booklets. they sent me a receipt and told me that they'd 'notify me of the outcome as soon as possible..' so i'm still waiting on that

I would pay a good deal of money to get back my papers, but only with marks of course. If you want out how to get them, please tell me.

you wont be getting raw marks from the Board very easily

your exam script, however, should be relatively easy
