@trephena thanks for the reply.
But in general can you tell me if the mistakes in referencig that i pointed out could lead to a fail? Ignoring the fact that my results are witheld.
just go to their website https://www.icaew.com/ and there is a live chat that can help you out
Thanks. What do you mean by too much copy paste of internet material? I didn’t copy paste anything. I also used very few quotes. Like maybe 2-3 max short sentences which were essential.

Hi @trephena
I am really worried as my result is witheld. I am 100% certain i didn’t copy anything. I put quotations and a paraphrased everything. Nothing in my RAP is without a reference in the reference list.
I do have a lot of sources and i gathered a lot of different information so i don’t know.
For SLS… everything is my individual experience but of course it’s not my fault if people had the same experience as me. Or if i noticed i had the same experience as them. However every single thing is personalised.
I don’t know if i should start preparing another RAP for the next submission or wait for my result which i don’t even know when it will come!
I submitted my obu in period 33 but on result day i found out my result is witheld.
I panicked because i am 100% sure i did not copy off anything so i started going through my RAP to find what could have gone wrong and i noticed 3 things. Can you please tell me if I would fail on referencing because of these 3 mistakes i made ( i should have caught them sooner ).
1. When i have made a point, i referenced it properly. But in some cases I repeated the same exact point but i did not reference it as i assumed that the reader read this in my earlier passages in my report so it is not needed. It is VERY obvious that i have talked about it before. Please tell me if this will fail me.
2. For one book reference i referenced the book but i only put pg.611 as my citation and reference even tho i used pages 611-613. It is very obvious that i got info from page 613 as well. However i reference the book properly, just the pages are incomplete. Please tell me if this is a major mistake?
3. For one of my citations, i accidentally put the in-text citation BEFORE the actual sentence.
I have reference every information in my RAP and paraphrased it and did not copy anything. What are my chances?
I really appreciate your response as i have been critically assessing my own RAP to know for sure why my result is witheld.
Thank you in advance
