A sample petition for exam re-evaluation
11.11.2024

Although the Expository Writing course teaches how to draft a proper petition, many of us do not apply this skill effectively in real-life situations. Below is a sample petition for an exam re-evaluation.

 

To the Differential Equations Teacher:

I am Ali Kaya, a student in your Differential Equations course, Section A, with student ID number 12345. I am writing to request a re-evaluation of my midterm exam.

In my assessment of my performance:

  • For Question 1, I did the following: ......... which I feel deserves 20 points.

  • For Question 2, I did the folowing: .......... which I feel deserves 25 points.

  • For Question 3, I did the following: ......... which I feel deserves 10 points.

  • I did not attempt Question 4 and therefore understand that I would receive no points for it.

Based on my performance, I expected a total score of 55 points. However, I received 40 points. I would appreciate it if you could re-evaluate my exam.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Ali Kaya
