The National Exams Jury (Júri Nacional de Exames or JNE) has extended the registration deadline for the second phase of the Geography A national exam until the end of Tuesday. The extension follows a parameterization error in the marking scheme for two items, which required the reclassification of student grades. Schools are currently receiving the corrected results.
