PAPER 1Candidates should attempt ALL of the questions from Section A and ALL the questionsfrom Section B.
Sections A carries 25% of the marks and Section B carries 75% of the marks. Withina section, each question carries equal weight. Candidates are advised to divide theirtime appropriately between Sections A and B: 40 minutes for Section A and 2 hours forSection B. This means spending 5 minutes per question from Section A and 30 minutesper question from Section B.A Periodic Table, the structures of the amino acids and nucleotide bases, the values ofphysical constants, character tables and selected mathematical formulae will be found inthe data book provided. Linear graph paper is available if required.For Section A candidates should write their answers on to the paper following the question,continuing on the reverse side if needed. If additional sheets are needed, these should besecured to the relevant question, ensuring that the candidate number and the questionnumber are written on each sheet. Candidates should make sure that their candidatenumber appears on each page they hand in. Each page of the question paper must behanded in, even if a question is not attempted.For Section B the answers to each question should be returned separately, and a separatecover sheet for each question should be completed.Write on ONE side of the paper only.Calculator – students are permitted to use an approved calculator.
