Students will be required to sit an exam, which will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the topic.
Knowledge is demonstrated by answering a series of short questions.
Understanding is demonstrated by answering one long question. The exam paper will give you two to choose from.
In previous years, the exam has consisted solely of long questions, with students required to answer two questions out of three. You can look at past exam papers to see examples of long questions. Examples of short questions are not yet available.
