Argue that your answer is right or at least partially, therefore deserving some marks.

Most for me was chem half yearly, scabbed seven marks, went from 80 to 89%.

I always come second in maths and my friend always comes first, and recently I came first in an exam or assignment (can't remember) and I was ecstatic. I only beat her by one mark but then she noticed a mistake in hers and got an extra mark, giving us the same mark... then we realised the teacher had marked all of us wrong for that question so we all got an extra mark, meaning that I still came first... and then she scabbed another mark and ended up beating me by one.

Hahaha.

I was pissed off about not getting any extra marks in Physics. I lost like 4 marks for not providing enough working, even though I had filled the provided lines with the stuff.

I got an extra five marks when I noticed a few mistakes in my 2 unit paper. And an extra four from my ext.1 paper. Not so lucky with biology, if i got an extra one mark i wouldve net myself an 100 (if, somehow, I changed that "Y" to a "U").

it's not immoral when you're right
which is the only situation i ever scab for anyways
Listen to this dude. I hate it when people whine for more marks. You ought to only argue against marking if you truly believe its wrong, not cause you want more marks.

LOL one guy at our school ALWAYS scabs mark/s, especially if he didn't come first. And he always gets a mark extra (or more). Don't know how he does it......

lol im in teh process of scabbing atm in eco. The teahcer's taken my test paper home to look over 3-4 marks. I've already received 1 :)

Oh and for english, because of my neglible handwriting, i got circles over some of my techniques in the reading task of AOS so i might get some marks if i can persuade that what was circled was worth a mark :)
