I did Unit 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 & 8 before coronavirus kicked in and we got our predicted. Usually its 3 assignments per unit but some are exam based that you do in first year.

The assignments are easy however they are very time consuming! One piece of advice that I would give you is get distinctions on every assignment because they will lift your overall grade if you do bad in your exam units. The start of year 12 is fairly laid back but the stress levels will increase 100% just do not leave anything till last minute. With the exam units they're fairly straight forward, you can resit units if you are not happy with an exam result so that you can get a higher grade.

Thank you! So if I resit, will it show on my results or anything that I resat a unit and will that affect my applications for uni later on?

Also do you have any tips for getting distinctions?

Hmm I’m not sure that it will show on your results from what I know but I could be wrong. It won’t affect uni applications cos I managed to get in uni by resiting a unit to get a higher grade. Check out the stuvia stuff that I sent earlier that’ll help you get a distinction
