How Do I Rewrite Upgrade Or Remark My Matric Results

Failing your matric can be quite a shock to the system, however, now is not the time to be despondent as there are numerous options to consider, the first of which is to apply for a remark. If you suspect there was a mistake, you can contact your school and ask for the relevant forms to apply for a re-mark of your papers.
