Practicing past papers should rank highly on any students list of prioritys. BUT THIS ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH. It vital is that students mark their answers and then seek help/support from teachers/friends/family/a tutor etc, to work on "plugging" these gaps in knowledge and understanding.
The impact of covid. Summer 2020 = no exam took place. Instead, the summer 2020 papers are used for the autumn's 2020 examinations. Summer 2021 = no exam took place. Once again, the summer 2021 papers are transfered to the November 2021 examinations.
