I wondered if the dates of the source materials for the AS Samples and the
AEB final exams are similar (I've not got anyone entered for AEB A level so
haven't seen the paper).... perhaps the temptation to use the surplus
materials collected for one paper for the other was just too much of a
temptation. Having said that to use basically the same questions does show
AT THE VERY LEAST a lack of imagination.
I wonder if anyone has actually sat down and drawn up a grid detailing
topics covered by each exam session - are there some topics which have a
much greater probability of being covered than others?
I remember in the dim and distant past when I was doing A levels being given
lists of "banker" questions! Are we saying that this is the case with
AEB/AQA or is this just a one-off?
Having just made the move from Nuffield to AQA I must admit that I find this
thread somewhat disturbing. It will be interesting to see how this months
AS questions shape up!
