I used to have the translations online but I can’t find them (rip) so I think it’s something only teachers can answer which is a pain if you’re self studying! You could try practicing some exam translations because those are easier to find the mark scheme for if it helps xx

I don't have it personally, but he says in one of his books to actually email him and ask for it
I met him once and he's really nice so I think he'd reply quickly
his email should be p easy to find cos he teaches at a secondary school atm

TSR removed the thread for some reason. No idea why considering it doesn't violate copyright since they are my answers... but anyways, pm me and I can send them to you.

I'm planning to do 7 today and 7 tomorrow and then leave one for the hour before the test and thus I'll be able to give you the first 14 by the end of tomorrow. I'm also going to do one practice test every day starting from the day after tomorrow and so will only be able to give you answers like the day before the test.

I'm doing OCR so yes :smile: I think pretty much everyone does OCR. Unfortunately I've only done like 3/4 of the translation as I've had other commitments, sorry.
