the answer to a question, make a guess or come back to it later. You don’t lose marks if you get something
wrong. It may be difficult to finish all the questions in the time allowed, so don’t spend too long on any one
question. Try to answer as many questions as you can. If you change your mind about an answer, please
erase your original answer using an eraser and colour your new answer in on the answer sheet.
