It terrible...anyway if you or anyone else has any resources, it would be a good idea to stick them in here as I assume tomorrow there will be many people looking. Maybe not, considering there are no resources from previous years either :/.

I'm surprised there's other people doing this exam board haha. Does anyone know how strict the mark schemes are, when I mark my own papers I never know if i'm being too nice or harsh - I always just make sure I put the words in the {} brackets. I'm assuming they must be quite strict as the grade boundaries are relatively low
