Final exam

  • Make sure you arrive at 9am for the final exam. If you are more than 30 minutes late you can not take the final exam.
  • Remember, you will work in your groups.
  • You will have about 3 hours to write the essay from start to finish. You will have to do a mind map.
  • You will find the grading system out on the day
  • You can use the internet, but only for facts research. You must write the essay in your own words. ANY copying will result in an instant FAIL for everyone in the group (and you know I will)
