I was so caught out when I saw it said "symbols" but it went alright I think

Well done-can anyone say what the Inspector question was?

If you're Year 10, get lost and actually revise. It's not worth it to cheat just to get good marks for the mocks

I'm not a Y10. I have been helping my nephew and not heard from him re AIC but can wait. He has computer science this pm so probs getting ready for that. Fair play for protecting questions from Y10. Good luck all with other exams!

Nope.
Just an interested parent.
But fair enough, I understand.

Hope the exam wasn't too bad! From what I've heard it was quite tricky. Just curious since I studied Journey's End for my GCSEs but my school isn't doing it this year, which questions came up?
Don't worry too much about the exam, it's done now 🙂
Good luck with Paper 2!

Extract for R&J was kinda tough tbh but I managed to get through it. Think grade boundaries might be a little low but I still cooked anyway!
