Hello Mubeen, 

hope you're doing well.

any news regarding your exam revaluation as am in the same position as you and considering doing a revaluation.

Hello ahmed,

Hope you are doing fine. Must be hard not achieving the desired mark iam sorry to say this but i did not continue with revaluation i decided to rewrite my exam. Ima officials themselves said that it is very rare that our marks goes up because they goes through multiple times through our answers. And the only thing that would change when revaluation is that a new grader will be appointed to grade our paper and only for essays. Since mcqs are computerized i highly recommed you do research on this before you apply for a revaluation.

Hi mubeen,

I am so sorry to hear this

I would luke to share a similar situation I encountered during my last attempt my score 350

I connected with Brain Hock (Hock's president) on LinkedIn and I got the below response from him after that I didn't applied for revaluation: 

"No, you should not ask for a reevaluation of your Exam. The last time I asked IMA they said that nobody had been successful. When someone gets a 350 they have multiple people regrade the Essays looking for the points that would make the score a pass. So, all of the possible points have already been given by the time the score is released."

Additionally I emailed to IMA body and they mentioned that the probability for passing is very low so this was also one of the reason why I didn't opted for revaluation. 

If you take my advice dont go for revaluation because IMA gives all possible grades to us before releasing the final grades. 

I hope this answer your questions. Thank you and best of luck buddy.

Best,
Lokesh
