To be able to review an exam, you should write an email directly to the professor.However, you can only register for this up to 6 weeks after the grades have been posted in FlexNow. The Professor also needs to give you a timely response. 

During the review, you can also insist on a comparison exam or on having questions answered!

Many extend their studies because, for example, they have a lot to do privately, have to work, or simply prefer not to have too much stress in their studies. If one decides to extend, they should discuss it with their study coordinator in order to create a precise plan.
