Revise mark schemes & then answer past questions to test your knowledge. Impossible to learn everything at this stage. Mark scheme is your best bet, just beware some of them are not full answers. So you'll need to extend.

I would advise you to spend a bit of time on ur spreadsheets cuz we shouldn't be losing those 20 marks of section B

Twelve marks for the spreadsheet questions

For spreadsheet it is just what and why

What does the formula do with relevance to your spreadsheet, why do you need the product of the function, ie: needed to use a sum to add up sub total, vat and shipping to calculate grand total.

The mark schemes are excellent for section b

Last day of revision today guys try not to learn any more content this close to the exam just brush over what you know with the mark schemes and maybe do one paper (or two)

Do not panic you are an excellent group of people and I am sure you will all do well. Make sure to get a good night's sleep to make sure your memory is with you when it counts.

Best wishes and good luck for tomorrow.

im trying mark schemes but nothings going in, the new teachers we had dont think we're going to pass (i heard them whispering to eachother) yet keep saying 'youve got this guys!' ive hit a brick wall 😓 its like ive got to the point where ive just stopped believing im gonna pass and thats it.

i cant do my spreadsheet at home because the school wont accept it, and im just relying on my 'teacher' finishing it for us.

and nobody would help me get my coursework up from a c 😭

Your school has it all wrong. Nobody can do well under those circumstances

i know, weve all basically been set up to fail, everybody got u's in the mock, bar the people who the teacher helped cheat and gave the mark scheme to, even they only got E's ?

its basically corrupt, and no matter how many people we tell, nobody will do anything

Perfect example that the mark scheme are not full answers. Most of them are just lists of key points where marks would be gained if explained fully. Mark scheme doesn't guarantee results if used incorrectly.
