What is the levels-of-response skill?
Show answer
The decisive skill is levels-of-response marking: the examiner bands your whole answer by quality rather than ticking points. What lifts you into the top band is naming a relevant theory, applying it to specific features of a product, and reaching a supported judgement. Component 1 rewards breadth and Component 2 rewards depth, but the core skill is the same across both.
What is q1?
Show answer
Give the timing, marks and sections of the two Eduqas written papers. [5 marks]
What is q2?
Show answer
Explain what lifts an extended response into the top band. [10 marks]
