Project has multiple reports in it?

If a submission has multiple projects included, then assess one of the projects as normal - providing feedback. However, the submission should be marked for re-submission, explaining that each project needs to be submitted separately.

A profile form per student should be completed and uploaded to the submission.

Conflict of interest:

If you know the student, mentor or anyone else you think are connected to the project, please report your conflict of interest and we’ll reassign the project.

Project assessment window:

There is a two week window that projects need to be assessed within, starting when you are assigned the project. Please email crest@britishscienceassociation.org as soon as possible if you cannot assess a project within this time frame.
​
All projects over two weeks old will be reassigned.
