A Higher Media exam run by Inverness College UHI has been failed by all students for a second year in a row.
Thirteen students had taken the course, which the college redesigned after none of the 22 who had signed up for the media exam passed it last year.
Roddy Henry, acting principal at Inverness College UHI, described the latest results as a "real shock".
The college said it had put in place additional support for the students as part of the redesign.
It is investigating the latest situation.
Most of those who sat the exam were aged between 16 and 18.
Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) said it provided "significant levels of ongoing support" to the college across all its subjects.
It said across Scotland the grade A to C attainment rate for Higher Media was 59.8% and the assessment "performed as intended".
Following last year's results, SQA also said the nationally-available 2016 Higher Media assessment had "performed as intended".

Re: Not in the media
Bit short on the understanding and appreciation, evidently?The Higher Media Course enables learners to analyse and create media content. Learners understand and develop their media literacy skills and appreciate the opportunities and challenges that occur within the media industry, while developing both theoretical knowledge of the media and the ability to create media content.
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
