Practical Endorsement Question

Practical Endorsement question

Hi I'm having huge anxiety at the moment

I do OCR B Chemistry. I am entirely lost with the scope of OCR B Endorsements. I don't understand required practicals and I think I've only done 1 or 2 set because I am not sure what ones we've done that are assessed. I am going into year 13

I have missed quite a few practicals in total (Idk if they were assessed) My practical folder is half empty because I have lost a lot of my results. I have had no word from my teacher. I am A* at chemistry in everything else.

How screwed am I? Am I going to fail it? I really can't afford that.

I think if you fail, you just have to keep doing it until you pass. Don’t worry.

So I'd have to do another year after year 13? I can't afford that

Iirc, you can just do the endorsement the next day if you need to. It’s unlikely you’d fail regardless.

You need to speak with your teacher and find a way forward. Why are you missing practicals?

You need to talk to your teacher asap. You have to pass this element.
