    Hi Alua

    No, I’ve not heard any voices from above to tell me what you may or may not expect. Just take it as it comes. Spend no more than 18 minutes on any single question. Allocate your time over all the subsidiary parts of the questions. Plan your answers – if a part question is worth 4 marks, spend 2 minutes thinking of 4 points to make and then the remaining 5.2 minutes writing out those 4 points. When you have spent 2 minutes thinking of 4 valid relevant markable points, just re-read the question to make sure that, when you start to write out your answer, you are answering the specific question and not one that you hoped had been asked.

    Beware of that little word “and”! So when a question asks you to “Identify and explain” you both identify and also explain!

    Attempt every question, and every part of every question.

    And good luck tomorrow
