Worried for Higher Graphic Communication
I feel as though, when doing past papers i have not done most of the course. So much of it is just ‘general knowledge’ that I don’t know if I will be able to study for. Does anyone have any help on how to prepare and study for it.

I’m also doing higher graphic communication and I’m finding the same problem :P
My teacher barely teaches much of the course so usually the class has to prepare for tests by themselves. Content wise: I think the best idea is to focus on the content that gives the most amount of marks. For example, modelling plans and cross hatching. DTP and CAD are the most important aspects in Higher Graphic Communication so they should be the focused on, the rest of like… if you want to be above and beyond then study those. Make sure that you know what all the symbols are for site plans. The course specification is your friend, it contains everything that will come up in the course. Compare questions between the course specification and the past papers questions so you can keep track of what question topics you know and what question topics you don’t know.
You got this though! Graphic communication can be a boring course as times but oh well :/
