    OCR Critical Thinking Unit 2
    Hey I was wondering if anyone else was doing OCR Critical Thinking Unit F502 next week?

    Does anyone know how the exam is structured? I've been entered for 70 minute and 20 minute exams but all the past papers are just one 90 minute paper? :confused:

    yes that is correct. i am also sitting this exam. we are advised to sped only 20 mintues on section A .. hence the seperate entry. . but by no means does it mean that we cant spend longer. its just a weird formality. the exam goes multiple choice section a. section b is like our unit 1 exam - identifying main conclusion, intermedia conclusion, counter arguements/arsertions. etc. only difference is we have to comment on strength and weakness of reasons and name its flaws. section C is developing your own arguement where u have to write 2 12 mark essays of your own. . a topic which will be given. hope that makes sense. i actually need this exam to go good cos i need all the ums points i can get to get into uni. how you finding the revision?

    Sorry my post didn't seem to send for some reason But thanks for the reply

    We weren't really given much revision just the past few papers, which went alright really and got a B in most. Just tried learning the flaws and what they all were.

    What did you think of the exam? I thought it was alright actually, lost track of my arguments a bit though so won't have done too well on that
