Edexcel Biology exam lengths for AS/A2?As the title says? how much time do you have to fill in the exam paper?
According to the Specification:

AS: 1 Hour 15 minutes
A2: 1 Hour 30 minutes
However if you look at their specimen papers
http://www.edexcel.com/migrationdocu...e_20110111.pdf
http://www.edexcel.com/migrationdocu...e_20110127.pdf
AS: 1 Hour 30 minutes
A2: 1 Hour 45 minutes.
Which is 15 minutes longer for each.
Does anyone know what is the actual length? -
