Just a few reminders about the MSc PTDF exam. Nothing groundbreaking, just advice: 1. Facts- try to get as many as you can, both about the field you are attempting, and about general news from CNN, BBC, etcetera. Textbooks are useful, but at this point (so close to the exams) I think searching relevant websites for info is more effective because you learn faster and more relevant information. 2. Negative marking exists, so if you are very unsure of the answers, just skip it. And please if you have any other past questions could you email them to 1week1concept@gmail.com? Thanks and I wish you every success!!
