Word processing for AQA GCSES

So basically i have a word processor in my exams but for whatever reason i just feel nervous that my a4 sheets of paper with my answers may get lost during transit or something.

I have no idea how the process work but i know there scanned digitally at a processing centre? As when i finish my exams the invigilators just print it off and put it at the front. How does it work when it gets to the centre? Anyone who has word processors before for aqa exams like last year pls just re assure me as i can’t stop thinking about it haha

Also i put typed on some of the questions but not all of them as i asked the invigilator and she said i didn’t need to.

Thanks in advance

I know someone who used a laptop for their exams last year. At the end of the exam, they were asked to physical check that all their answers had been printed correctly (so the last page hadn't failed to print, or anything like that). They then had to write "Page X of Y" on every page, so if a page went missing somehow it'd be obvious. Their candidate number and centre number was on each page too, but I don't know if that happened automatically when it was printed, or whether they had to write that on each page too. I think they had to sign each page too, but I'm not sure. The software they were using saved their work, so it could be reprinted at a later date if necessary.
Obviously the above can take some time. So make sure to allow for that if you have plans immediately after the exam!
I don't know what happens when the exam board receive the bundle of papers, but I hope the above will reassure you that quite a lot of effort is out into ensuring that nothing goes missing. So stop stressing.

Yeah all of that is fine but just during transport/ when AQA receive the paper with the loose a4 printed is what i would be most worried about

Well, if they lose a single sheet it's obvious, because each sheet is numbered. If they lose all your sheets, then it's obvious as you "typed on some of the questions but not all of them" and (presumably) indicated this on the answer booklet (by writing "see separate sheet", or whatever, for those questions you didn't answer directly in the booklet). The invigilator took a "roll call" of who was present, and that will accompany the pack of answer booklets / sheets, so if you answer booklet went missing too, then this would be obvious.
So there's no way they could not know there's an issue. And your typed answers are saved by the software you used, so can be reprinted if it's established that they have gone missing.
Exam boards and schools have been doing this for a while, so have quite a few procedures in place to avoid the sort of issues you're worrying about.

Yeah thanks i understand, the thing is i only put answer typed on 3 of the answers as i asked the invigilator and they said i didnt need to so i didnt wanna waste any time.
