I think you need a doctor's note, so it's probably a good idea to get one - even if you don't need it but just in case. Not sure but think that they'll probably mark your paper more leniently or add on extra marks.

Sorry to hear you're feeling unwell - really hope you get better soon!

Give the exam a go, you might as well, but get a doctors note and see if it helps.

This happened to me before, if you have a doctors note you get to re-sit for free (if you inform them before the exam,) but get no mark for that paper

If you get a note your school will send a request to Edexcel saying that they have to add on some marks, how many depending on how seious they consider your illness (like whether it was totally impossible to study).

Get well soon for your other exams :smile: huggs

Yeah, unless you really are too ill to sit in an exam hall for a couple of hours, ie throwing up, I think you'll have to sit the exam, but if you get a doctor's note and give it to your exams officer, you'll probably get special consideration. Feel better soon :smile:
