How did you find the first paper? I’m stressing for the problem solving paper as I felt my principles didn’t go that well.

im going to be honest, it wasnt TOO bad but there was some things they asked about we hadnt even learnt at all which was quite annoying ngl.

yeah same, i thought id find a pattern in the past papers the only pattern there is is the start of each question being 'critically examine the challenges' or 'compare and contrast'.
well that being no use, what challenges am i meant to 'learn' when they can ask me about absolutely anything😐️

nope, i havent even tried answering them ngl some i did in mocks but i wouldnt remember what i wrote then. i do have access of the 2023 paper with the drawing and maths part answered by my teacher tho, not the case study or mark scheme unfortunately.

also what do you think might come up?? i have a strong feeling theyre gonna ask me something to do with sustainability and i have NO idea why but i sense that the case study might mention childrens toys😭
