For those of you taking examinations in January, good luck with your preparations. When sitting face-to-face exams, please remember that not all exams start/finish at the same time, so a gentle reminder to respect fellow students in keeping down the noise level when entering/leaving the exam hall. Find more information and advice for preparing for exams on this page.
