hey guys, for everyone who does AQA GCSE DT

i’m on final testing and evaluation - if i have lots of client feedback and writing but only limited images of it actually being used in an ‘eating away from home’ setting, will i lose many marks?

Hi, I am doing Edexcel D.T and I have chosen "How can products be used to encourage people to participate in a sport?​". Having some strong client feedback which is detailed doesn't require a lot of images but I am pretty sure that the exam board want to see evidence of you testing the prototype out like my teacher was taking pictures of me and inserting it into my Powerpoint. The way I have done it is similar to a comic but really detailed. I have 1 image and I describe what I was doing in the image and why I was doing it and how it is suitable for the whole purpose of the product.

I am more stressed out on the exam though, my teacher never taught a single lesson from the exam and just focused on the NEA. 😭

My teacher is so slow in marking yet quite friendly aswell. He just talks about his personal life and he makes us watch this turkish TV show called "Kurulus Osman". I finished my product and finished my NEA but I can still make changes before my teacher marks it and sends it to the examiner.

I'm so happy for you that you turned it in, I pray we both get the best marks possible
