Next Wednesday you'll be sitting the exam. If you've spent the last few months revising consistently, including working through the tasks in this series, you should be well-prepared by now. But there's still time to go over everything again and check your progress. What can you do in the next few days? Here are some suggestions.
1. Have you done all the tasks in the last nine weeks of this series? If not, go back and finish them off. You'll find the links here (scroll down). If you have, try repeating them and then comparing your answer with both the suggested answer and your previous answer. Can you see an improvement in the content or formatting of your answer this time? If not, make a note of where you went wrong. Keep it in mind as you work through the activities in 2 and 3 below.
2. If you haven't already done them, these activities will help you discover whether you have any remaining weaknesses in the syllabus areas or tasks on the two papers. They're long, so leave plenty of time to do them and follow up on anything you got wrong (90-120 minutes). If you can't complete an activity in one sitting, check your answers up to that point and do the suggested follow-up reading for any question you had problms with. Then take note of the question number where you stopped, and go back and start from there next time.
