Question Higher Modern Studies/Appealing
 
Hi there, I got a B in Higher Modern Studies, which I was pleased with as I was convinced I'd messed it up, but I got an A in the prelim (73%) and, from my reading of the cut off marks for an A in the final exam, it had been lowered to 69%. Obviously that slightly increases my chances of a successful appeal, but I had a general query of what to do regarding appeals? From what I've read, I ought to get in contact with my school to check if they can/will appeal for me, which is what I'll be doing on Monday, is there anything else I need to do, and if I'm unsuccessful in appealing, will I be informed?

Thanks!

Thanks koolcat12! I think I'll phone my school on Monday just to be sure because I go to a private school and they tend to do things their own, bizarre way.
