    Dear Sir, I attempted 80% of the exam paper as I ran out of time and couldn’t attempt the final question of 20 marks.
    Do I stand a chance to pass it, if so, how much?

    Thanks

    You certainly do have a chance of passing but what is so difficult about stopping an answer attempt when your time allocation is finished?

    You have a watch.

    There is a clock in the examination room.

    You can calculate time allocation.

    So what’s difficult?

    Your chances of passing an exam are GREATLY increased if you attempt all questions

    I have said and written this so often that I am reaching the point where I have no sympathy with students that fall for this basic error!

    Reach the end of the time allocation. Then STOP!

    It’s that easy
