Re-Reading of Examinations |
The Aristotle University College of Law policy on Re-Reading examinations is binding on both the student and the Faculty member, and is as follows:
- Only Final Examinations are subject to Re-Reading
- All requests for Re-Reads shall be submitted to the Dean's Office accompanied by a Re-Read Request Form.
- The student must indicate in the Re-Read Request Form briefly, yet precisely, explaining why the student feels that the original grade is not appropriate.
- The Re-Read Request Form shall be made within three (3) days of the receipt of the examination grade in question.
- The Faculty member initially grading the examination shall review the bluebook, or typed (computer examination) and complete the appropriate portion of the re-read request form, then return the completed request form along with the exam(s) to the Dean's Office.
- The Faculty member should make meaningful comments explaining his grading of the examination in question.
- After Re-Reading the Final examination, the Faculty member may raise or lower the initial grade of the final examination.
- If the student is not satisfied with the Faculty member's Re-Read evaluation, the student may request that the Dean review the matter in question. Such a request shall be made within three (3) days of receiving the evaluation of the re-read by the faculty member.
- The student shall set forth in detail why the student is requesting further evaluation by the Dean.
The Dean may either allow the grade to stand, or refer the matter to an independent reader for evaluation. The decision of the Dean shall be final, in writing, and notify the involved student and Faculty member as to the decision. The student shall not personally consult with the Faculty member for a Re-Read. Failure to comply with this Aristotle University College of Law policy shall result in the denial of a Re-Read.
