This DT is diabolical. We still have to finish another booklet, the coursework was wrapped up just last week. That was way too much for just 20%!!

I plan on reading through the revision book I got last year once, quickly
maybe might try a question or 2 that I find hard - though it's not my priority

DT is such a joke. The factfiles are absolutely awful and we spent 6.5 months on the coursework and nobody has any idea for the exam. I end up having to make my notes off the internet.

I've been told it's relatively easy and GCSE standard
also the fact that we don't have to make deductions make it even more easier

I plan on memorizing the color changes just to maybe have an idea what reagents etc are actually being used

hopefully there is no graph to draw like last year though

yes, i did that last year where i memorised colours, but it wasnt helpful because all the chemicals were just labelled a-f.

I know, nonetheless I'm going to need to know them for A2 3B and perhaps A21 and A22, so might as well memorize them now and have some closure
The problem with the practical is that you can't really practice them at home
