You can have your attempts at any of the currently available assignments marked by ActEd. If you wish to submit your script for marking in a subject and have purchased marking for the current session, but only have a previous year's version of the assignments, then you can request a copy of the current assignments in that subject free of charge.
You can buy Series X Marking and/or Series Y Marking for a specified subject (eg Subject CM2) for the current exam sitting. You will not be able to defer this marking to a future exam sitting.
We recommend that a student sitting a subject for the first time purchases Series X Marking (and Series Y Marking for the CM and CS Subjects). However, if you might change your study plans in light of your exam results, we recommend that you use Marking Vouchers rather than Series Marking. This will give you much more flexibility should your plans change.
When marking your scripts, we aim to provide specific advice to improve your chances of success in the exam and feedback on your understanding of the material. By submitting your scripts in line with our published recommended submission dates, you will make steady progress through the course. We also publish a set of final deadline dates – if you miss the final deadline date for an X Assignment or Y Assignment your script will not be marked.
We typically provide full solutions with Assignments and the Mock Exam (either in print or via the The Hub for the computer-based exams). However, if you order Series X or Y Marking (or Mock Exam Marking) at the same time as you order the Series Assignments (or Mock Exam), you can choose whether or not to receive a copy of the solutions in advance. If you choose not to receive them with the study material, you will be given access to them when your marked script is returned to you in The Hub (or following the final deadline date if you do not submit a script).
If you have purchased marking, to submit your script you will need to upload it to the relevant place in your Hub account, but please read the instructions on the assignment or mock exam coversheet before completing your assessment.
Unless you are using a Marking Voucher, any scripts received by ActEd after the deadline date will not be marked. It is your responsibility to ensure that your script is submitted in good time to reach us.
Your script will be allocated to the next available marker and will be returned to you via The Hub. We encourage markers to mark scripts quickly, but you should be aware that scripts submitted around the time of the final deadlines may have a significantly slower turnaround time than usual.
