MAD to miss this support👏

[Leith English Department @leithenglish]

Well done to everyone who did their prelim today. Your results are not the results for the exam, you have still got your folios, S.S.T and months more of revising till your final exam in May.

Bullet pointing is a much neater and faster way of answering R.U.A.E. questions. It also makes it easier for your market to see then give you a mark.

[Leith English Department @leithenglish]

The introduction on your critical essay gets you NO points. So, you should keep it short in order to save time which can be used on other sections!
