2016 Exams on SQA website ??!!

I went on the SQA website today and saw that the Nat 5 2016 Mathematics Exam and marking scheme was now on the website under the heading past papers.

However, I checked some other subjects and they are yet to be uploaded.

This is mainly a thread to tell you that the marking schemes for some of the subjects you sat may be on the website.

Why don't the upload them all at once ?

Thanks and Good Luck on Results day. Wishing you the best !

The release of past papers has always been staggered, I'm not entirely sure why, however in some papers there are issues with copyright claims where papers use extracts from texts or even stock images that help provide some context to a question. The papers may also have to be further adapted to be suitable for online distribution/viewing.
All of the papers are usually available before the start of September, although there have been some exceptions.

If anybody's interested the papers that I've found that are available are:
- National 5 Admin & IT
- CfE Higher Computing Science
- CfE Higher Drama
- CfE Advanced Higher Economics
- CfE Higher Gaidhlig
- CfE Higher German
- National 5 Graphic Communication
- CfE Higher & Advanced Higher Health & Food Technology
- CfE Higher & Advanced Higher Italian
- National 5, CfE Higher & Advanced Higher Latin
- National 5 & CfE Advanced Higher Mathematics
- CfE Higher Spanish
- CfE Higher Urdu

If only physics and biology were available! Those were my main subjects, and I wasn't expecting English either because of what you said about copyright etc. Really nervous :tongue:

I know I'm itching to see H English, H Maths and H Physics papers. I'm nervous as well, but I keep trying to remind myself that trying to work out how well you did from the marking instructions is never a good idea :wink:
