- Students are able to take in 4 sides of A4 research notes into the exam; these must be submitted with the candidate’s exam script.
- The purpose of the notes is to serve as a memory aid in the exam.
- The notes must be hand written by the candidate.
- They should cover primary and secondary sources, statistics, brief quotations, diagrams and note form summaries.
- It is recommended that students collect research findings carefully during the course of the Critical Study Unit. These should then be selected and edited carefully at a reasonable period before the exam, and presented as the 4 final sides of research notes.
Note: The notes will not be marked, but they will be checked. Where there is doubt about a particular students’ grade, the notes could be crucial at Grade review in decision-making.
Rules regarding taking in notes
- No essay plans or continuous prose (paragraphs) allowed.
- No additional sheets or materials allowed.
- No word processed, printed, photocopied material allowed.
- Students should take careful note of the rules, as failure to follow them will result in heavy penalties being imposed. This could result in disqualification from the exam.
- Turn up to the exam in plenty of time so your teachers can do a final check of your notes before you go in.
