Reassessment and Reread

In accordance with the Charter of Student Rights and subject to the conditions stated therein, students have the right to consult any written submission for which they have received a mark and the right to discuss this submission with the examiner. Students may request an informal review of any graded material by the instructor and are urged to do so before initiating a formal reassessment or reread.

A. Reassessment of coursework

Requests for formal reassessment of course work other than an official final exam (term papers, mid-terms, assignments, quizzes, etc), shall be made to the School of Religious Studies Student Affairs office (studaffairs.relg [at] mcgill.ca) 10 working days after the graded material has been made available to students. Reassessments should normally be completed within 20 working days of the request.

  • The School of Religious Studies Student Affairs office obtains from the student or the instructor the original of the work including the comments and the grade, a copy of the assignment, a copy of the syllabus.
  • The School of Religious Studies Student Affairs office transmits the material for reassessment to the designated associated examiner for the course or, when there is no associate examiner available, to the Director of Religious Studies, who then appoints an alternate associate examiner.
  • When the reassessment is complete, and the associate examiner has submitted a report, the Student Affairs Office will inform both the student and the instructor of the result and will confirm with the instructor that any necessary grade change is made.

B. Reread of final exam

Requests for formal rereads of official final exams only (exam must be listed on the Final Exam schedule; this can include take-home exams) must be made in writing to the School of Religious Studies Student Affairs office (studaffairs.relg [at] mcgill.ca) by March 31 for Fall term courses; September 30 for Winter and Summer terms courses. These deadlines are strictly enforced and no requests will be accepted past them.

  • The School of Religious Studies Student Affairs office obtains from the instructor the examination and the examination script, including the comments and the grade, a copy of the syllabus and any examination guide provided to the class prior to the examination.
  • The School of Religious Studies Student Affairs office transmits examination materials to the designated associated examiner, or when there is no associate examiner available, to the Director of Religious Studies, who then appoints an alternate associate examiner.
  • When the reread is complete, and the associate examiner has submitted a report, the Student Affairs Office will inform both the student and the instructor of the result and will confirm with the instructor that any necessary grade change is made.

In a formal reassessment or reread, rather than re-correct the work and then grade it as they would have done themselves, reviewers assess the appropriateness of the original grade based, for example, on the application of the grading key to the student's work. If a grade is deemed unfair, it is changed, whether the new grade is higher or lower than the original, i.e., the reviewer's grade takes precedence over the original grade.
