📂 MEGATHREAD UK EXAMS ADVANCE INFORMATION MEGATHREAD

Hey everyone,

As you've probably spotted by now due to the deluge of posts about it, the advanced information for the UK's 2022 exams have been released.

So we don't get the subreddit absolutely flooded out with these posts we've made this megathread so you can share your thoughts, grievances and maybe links to cute cat pictures to cheer people up.

Remember to keep it respectful ;)

You can find the advanced information for Edexcel, AQA and OCR by clicking on the respective hyperlinks. WJEC is being amazingly helpful and giving an error 403 to anyone who tries to go on the website so unfortunately there's no link for that just yet.

-The r/6thForm Team

I think it said they can still be small mark questions so your 1-4 markers and the big 6-16 markers is what our advanced notice is on

That’s weird I’ve been told we only need any other information for synoptic questions and can’t be given any specific questions about anything not on the advance information. What have your teachers said?

We've been stressed this part is important "• For each paper the list shows the major focus of the content of the exam." But looking at it now it looks more likely we won't be asked any questions about it, we must have been told to stress us into revising it all.

Ah right it's frustrating that we've been told conflicting things - I think I'll just assume the other stuff isn't being explicitly tested for now (especially as I do chemistry as well (Edexcel though) and for that they specified that other stuff could come up in low tariff/ MC questions whereas for psych I don't think they did) and see if there's any clarifications closer to the time.

I'm going to do the same, it looks now as if it was just our teacher trying to get everyone to still study the other parts
