use it as a mock
- 1. Get the paper. Open it on www.aqa.org.uk, print it or work it in your exercise book, and set a timer for 135 minutes.
- 2. Mark it honestly. Open the mark scheme afterwards, not during. Write the marks per part in the margin and add them up.
- 3. Sort the lost marks. Not by topic, by what you did on the page: a rearrangement done in your head, an “explain” answered with the conclusion only, a graph described without numbers. The habit that fixes a bucket fixes it in every topic.
