I’m sorry to hear that you’re in this position [USER=6305]@RubySmithers[/USER] , it’s so tough to not get the results you’ve been aiming for after working really hard.

I did the GDL last year at BPP and I agree with what’s been said above. The best way to improve exam technique is to do as many past exam papers as possible in timed conditions. That way by the time you do the exams you’ll be very experienced in issue spotting and getting all your info down in the required time. Also, often issues will come up in similar ways so the more past papers you do the easier it will be to spot the issues in each question. You can then use the mark scheme to mark your answers or ask tutors if they can help you with feedback as [USER=2273]@em311[/USER] has said.

And I agree with the above, try to get your exam papers back so you can see where you need to improve. You mentioned that you were confident you had scored above 60 in the exams so it could be that you thought you were hitting the right points but for some reason it didn’t translate. Seeing your past papers would probably help you get to the bottom of that.
