  • little and often can be the best approach to filling your exam sketchbook.
  • Assessment Objective 1 (AO1) requires evidence of ideas informed by research and critical studies.
  • AO2 requires evidence of experimenting and practising with materials and techniques.
  • AO3 requires evidence of recording from observation.
  • AO4 requires evidence of a meaningful final idea, making connections to previous research and development.
  • make sure your final idea has been extensively and thoroughly developed.
  • use the exam plan to help you organise your 10 hours effectively, and don't forget to bring all your preparatory work with you to the exam.

Good luck!
