Is it possible to get 100UMS on the Unit 3 exam? I've done alot of revision. I got an A in my coursework and an A in this exam? So I've lost 20 UMS out of 200 leaving me at the boundary of an A* at 180/200 so far.


Remember that in the Unit 3 exam you don't need to exactly get 90/90 marks to get 100 UMS.
Depending on how difficult the test is, you can lose up to 10-15 marks and still get 100 UMS so it's still possible

I got the same answers except for 6 I only got B right but does anyone remember questions 4,12, and 14??


Question 14 was the benefits of a patent?
But the answer for that question could also be:
C.) Sole rights to the use of a product

I posted an unofficial mark scheme to this. Someone stupidly merged it with another thread. The mark scheme is like the 3rd post on the first page now.

Question 14 asked about the benefits of a patent?
A.) Ownership of an invention or process
B.) Reduce the risk of failing
C.) Sole rights to the use of a product
D.) Insurance policy that provides protection for 20 years
E.) ? But was probably wrong

There are contradictions as to whether the answer is A and C or A and D.

It's not a insurance policy, it's 'a government authority or licence' so it should be AC.

Might be but the person above put that as question 9 in the un-official mark scheme

That's what I was thinking but from what people are saying its 50/50 at the moment

I got all the same answers as you but I messed up question 6 and didn't put D. Does anyone remember question 4, 12, and 14??


Im sorry to say you got question 9 wrong. It was not the 20 year one, it was the one to do with being the only one able to use the invention. We went through the teat with our teacher and she told us what she thought was correct. Im happy to say I got 39/40. Question 12 was about boots if that helps.
