Thousands of young people across Scotland are set to receive their exam results.
Students will be able to receive their grades by text or email from Tuesday morning.
Traditional results certificates will also be sent out to households by first class post.
The SQA will open its helpline from 8am to help pupils who have questions about their certificates.
Schools will also receive the results of students, as well as any universities or colleges that they have applied to through Ucas.
The SQA states that if a final grade is lower than the estimate of a learner’s school, college or training provider submitted before the exam, it may be possible to make an appeal.
An appeal can be prioritised if the pupil has a conditional place at university or college, or in training or employment that depends on their grade.
Appeals 2023 has a different process to the one used last year as alternative assessment evidence will not be considered.
This year, if a grade is appealed, a senior marker – either a practising teacher or lecturer – will carry out a marking review of the SQA-marked assessments.
A deadline for priority appeals has been set for August 15, while the deadline for other appeals is August 29.
Decisions on priority appeals will be sent to schools on September 4.
The results of all other appeals are likely to be issued at the end of October.
