NO!
Unit 3 is only available from June 2003 in the new style, i.e. using a pre-released case study and a one hour exam.

Subject: Re: AQA resits

Wonder if anyone can help?? Please?
I have 36 students who began AQA BS in 2001 and many saved the resit of paper 3 until the last session for obvious reasons.  I am trying to find out if the old style paper - ie the style they took last year - will be available for them to resit in June?  The person I spoke to at the board today did not seem sure!, promised a call back and didn't.  Has anyone else raised this with the board and got an answer?  She seemed convinced that students would have to take the new style paper using the pre-release.  This does not seem to be a logical or fair situation for re-sitting.  Anyone any ideas, knowledge of the facts or helpful contacts?  We are not using AQA this year, having reverted back to Nuffield so I did not go to training about the new style as I thought it did not apply to me.  It does not seem fair that students will have to plow through what looks like a very long case study at the same time as covering unit 6 work, it also means this will have to be covered outside normal time as it is not all students??
