makeup exam

Test do-over

A makeup exam is a test given to a student who missed the originally scheduled exam, typically due to illness, emergency, or other excused absence.

The makeup allows the student to complete the requirement without penalty: I have to take a makeup exam on Friday because I had the flu during finals.

Also called a makeup test.
