After you have completed the online Derived Exam Rating Application and Consent form for students, the TASC Medical Certificate needs to be completed by a medical practitioner.
A medical practitioner (registered GP, paediatrician or a hospital doctor) must provide a specific medical diagnosis of your illness and an assessment of whether the condition is/was severe enough to prevent exam attendance, or substantially impair exam performance. Other health professionals (such as pharmacists, nurses and psychologists) cannot provide the same level of medical diagnosis.
General ‘unfit for duties’ certificates will NOT be accepted as they do not include the required information).A general medical certificate that simply states you were unfit for work/study is NOT acceptable.
If you are having difficulties applying, please contact TASC so we are aware of your situation and can help advise you.
Be aware of the time limits for applications detailed at Illness & emergency during exams.
