boris_on_trials Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 It depends. The exam board send's your school a specification sheet saying what you can do like, make a toy or a charity box. Then they pic the theme and you can expand it. My friend made Nohas Ark was well kool.Did any boady do graphics exam wat u think of it my teacher went sick and said it was all set out wrong.

future orange 660 Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 you can get an a* by making a door wedge so long as you justify your chosen design and make it well and exactly how you said you were ging to following research. also do a review afterwards.best thing to do is make something simple so that you can make it well rather than struggling to get it finished.

PaRtZ Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 For GCSE I made an educational toy For AS level I made some pedalsFor A level I made a camping table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OD404 Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 I made a set of pedals in GCSE then for A-Level I made a front Bike light that could alter its brightness based on the riding environment (ambient light levels and the type of terrain).Try not to get too caught up in coming up with a super idea for something to make, how you go about the whole design process will ultimately determine how good a grade you get.
