    Does the project brief not come with a marking scheme, like the Technology paper does?


  • Registered Users Posts: 264 ✭✭Liveit

    Mine is about 60 pages so far.
    Sure just the Realisation will be 20+ alone.

    How much of that is actual words as opposed to photos/sketches??

    Anyone have any idea about the experiments?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,739 ✭✭✭johnmcdnl


    I have 8500 words in size 12 font so that's 25 pagesish... not just finished yet have to put in working drawings yet and final evaluation and that stuff yet...

    in total i'll be look at just under 40 i'd say including photos and all

    Anybody have any idea or what i should study for the main written exam.
    We never really did much theory in school so if the minimal could be learned i'd appreciate chapters. :D

    I know 2 drawing questions come up, but im not too good with them.
    Then U-value which i can do
    and
    safet question which is general knowledge.

    need to look over three more questions just to make sure i do well, What should i look over ?

    Thanks for any help :):)
