Only after dropping down from higher haha, for the writing section where it tells you what to include in the notes etc, does writing any extra sentences get you any marks? (:

I honestly don't know but look at it this way, it's better to put them in and get nothing from them than it is to lose marks because you only put in the minimum.

robbiep94

Ya but if your wrong you loss marks. Just put them in if your 100% correct. Dont take any changes.

Mista

Oh this exam will be so taxing...

robbiep94

I think so,our examiner told us that we will be allowed to

Mysteriouschic

I always finish the paper extremely early like maybe after an hour.
Last year I did and I was allowed to leave early but then had to be back for the aural.

Mista

Thank god! Get done in an hour, go get lunch, and study like hell for history!

What's technology like? I was really annoyed that our school never even mentioned these subjects. I would've loved to do it. Heck, I do it in my own spare time already.

I'd imagine so, that's all I've ever done is that much.. Em, the postcard and message/note don't get marks for layout if I remember correctly, so it wouldn't matter not 100% sure though, check the marking scheme

Raisedbywolves

Can someone tell me the layout of the exam like what I will have to complete. I can't find any info online. I dropped back to pass just before my graduation and my teacher didn't tell me anything about the ordinary paper, thanks.

If you did higher, then this will b p*ss easy for you.

Wanchor

This exam is incredibly simple really, multiple choice, half a page for notes/letters, fill the gaps and 2 English comprehensions. It's a pity ordinary isnt worth more points. :P

Raisedbywolves

Omg this is great! And layouts don't matter? Thanks for that link.

Whatsernamex33

Only if you decide to do the letter, then the layout matters and you get marks for it
