Candidates will work from a draft containing both handwritten and typewritten material.

The examination period is 1 hour 30 minutes, in which time candidates are required to carry out all assessment tasks within the stated error tolerance. Results will be graded Distinction, Pass or Fail and the grade achieved will be stated on the candidate’s certificate.
