Can you please give each post a meaningful subject line that would be helpful to students using the search function. E.g. "What is a sequence check?" Or "How to ...." or the Q name and exam session. Sequentially numbered means, for example, 2038, 2039, 2040, 2041 etc. The sequence check is then checking that it is complete, e.g. that 2040 is not missing.

Short answer - "No" There is an explanation highlighted "IMPORTANT note" on page 73 of our notes. Our notes are not so very long - I suggest reading through them would be useful preparation before attempting past exam questions.
