Can you release my results before the published results release date?

We are unable to release examination results before the published results release dates. We process hundreds of thousands of exam papers each series and it is very important that the results learners receive have been thoroughly checked and cross checked before we release them, especially as we understand that any errors could affect a learner's future prospects.

To ensure that all learners are treated equally we work with colleagues to process candidate results within a very strict timeline leading up to the results release dates. The timing is set to ensure all learners throughout the world receive their results at exactly the same time and without bias. If we were to deviate from this then the precedent would be set for each and every learner to make a special case to have their results released early. Other candidates may then perceive that they have not been treated fairly.
