Much appreciated if you could share them :biggrin:

Hey thanks I'll try sparknotes. For section A the question will be divided up into 3 parts a b and c.
Part a is worth 8 marks so about 3 or 4 PEE's will do.
Part b is 12 marks so 4 or 5 PEE's will be enough.
Part c is 16 marks so 6 or 7 PEE's will be enough.
PEE is point evidence explanation. A full PEE is 3 marks so you can work it out. It's better to have an extra one just to secure the full marks.
