Centres conducting their own AS oral tests may open the topic cards 3 working days before the examination.

Unit 3 Oral Examination, please note the following:

FN3 (GN3 SN3) The communication marks for the exposé will now be out of 30 (10 for communication and quality of content of expose; 10 for quality of discussion and 10 for overall quality of communication).

The discussion following the expose will last a maximum of 10 minutes.
