AVOID CLASH IN TIMETABLE

Timetable Clash

Candidates entering GCE Business Studies / Business, Economics & Psychology must note that both examinations of these subjects for both 2008 Specification (Modular Qualifications) and 2015 Specification (Linear Qualifications) will be available. Please ascertain the specification(s), level(s) and
subject / unit code(s) you are studying, check the timetabling information and opt for appropriate subject / unit codes accordingly.
The examination timetables are decided by the Examination Boards. It is the candidates responsibility to check CAREFULLY the relevant examination timetables (including GCE/IAL/GCSE/IGCSE) and the regulations, syllabuses and other relevant information on the Edexcel website
(www.edexcel.com) before submitting their entries so as to avoid timetable clashes among subjects entered and prohibited combination of subjects/units. Normally, no special arrangements will be made under such circumstances. Candidates who wish to sit more than one examination session on the
same day are advised to check and ensure that there is sufficient break time (e.g. two hours) between examination sessions for travelling and taking rest. These examinations may be held at different examination centres required travelling. Please pay attention to the start time specified below.
Candidates who are going to enter Cambridge GCE/IGCSE (May/June 2017) should also check the Cambridge examination timetables to avoid clashes between the two examinations.

* October examinations are not offered in Hong Kong currently.

Re-sit: Candidates can resit individual IAL units before certification. However only
the better of the two most recent non-absent attempts will be available for
calculating the subject grade. This means that the higher mark of the last two
examinations will be used to calculate the grade.
For instance if a candidate sits an examination for the first time and they
achieve 80 marks and they sit the same examination again and achieves
70 marks and they sit the same examination again and achieves 60
marks; 70 marks will be used to calculate the grade. The first 80 marks is
no longer valid as only the last two attempts will be eligible to use.
Please refer to the FAQ page and document here:

Candidates are only counted as taking an examination if they were


present at the time of the examination. If a candidate is absent from the
