Title: Time management...
Post by: Sh6498 on November 11, 2015, 11:04:50 pm
Just wondering how long everyone spends on each section, and what you all recommend? I'm really struggling to get it all done in 2 hours 😐

I'm struggling as well hahah. I'm hoping to spend around 20-25 mins max on short answer, and maybe around 45-50 mins each for the AC and essay. I will probs spend a bit longer on essay.

I spend 5 minutes each on quickly outlining the AC and essay, then 20 minutes on short answer, 40 on AC and 50 on essay.
Those are my maximums - generally I aim to get done within those times so I can read over the exam and make sure my handwriting isn't too disgusting.

Hey everyone
Apologies if this is on the wrong post, but what do you think the essay topic will be? not sure if we are going to get anything on Identity since it was last year's exam. Good Luck to everyone  :D

Firstly, good luck today!

You need to make sure you really spend reading time well. I'd recommend answering all short answer questions in your mind during reading time so that you can finish it in 20 mins. This will therefore allow you to spend more time on AC and Essay!
