A student is a rewriter if they have already written the same exam in the same school year or in the last 2 school years, and has received an Exam Mark that does not have a status of RE, IC or NW. A student who registers for the same exam in different exam sessions is also being considered as a rewriter for all subsequent registrations (following the first registration).
