Hi
Several students told me. I have contacted AQA. They said they were aware and would this take into account while marking. Just to be on the safe side I have also put in for special considerations.
Makes you want to scream after all the problems in the summer that they have not made sure to check it.
BTW the question asked for 4 full names and only 3 full names were given and one first name.
Hope this helps
Kind regards
Marjanne

Hi, I have checked the GCSE paper which students sat yesterday and there seems to be a problem with the first question which asks candidates to select the four full names of people mentioned in the first article (worth 4 marks). However, there are only three people referred to. Please can you check with the exam board (each mark is precious!) Thanks
