  12. Once a student submits his/her exam (answered questions), he/she will NOT be given another opportunity to re-do the E-Examunless he/she has a valid/genuine excuse such as a technical problem/medical condition or experience circumstances beyond his control. In such extenuating cases, he/she must inform the invigilator or contact the Principal/Deputy Principal who is responsible for the section immediately (within 15 minutes of the problem occurring).
