Revision: MEST1 mock exam

Your full MEST1 mock exam is on Wednesday 29 March at 8.30am.

We're in the process of producing some stunning coursework and now we need to match that top-grade performance in the exam.

You need to be revising EVERYTHING you've learned in Media this year. These PowerPoints may help you:

Film Language unit

MIGRAIN Introduction to Media unit

MEST1 Section B - British Film Industry / Ill Manors / A Field In England unit

There's also plenty of other revision you need to be doing:

Check your MEST1 Section B index and revise all the work you've done on Ill Manors, A Field In England and your independent case study so far.

There are MEST1 Section B past questions to revise, plan and practice here.

*Bonus revision material*

As requested by 12C, here's a revision PowerPoint summarising key theories and terminology for the MEST1 exam

Remember to look closely over your feedback and learner response from your January MEST1 assessment. You need to make sure you acting on that feedback and improving key aspects of your exam performance - and remember we provided the mark scheme and Examiners' Report for the January assessment which will be useful to revise before your MEST1 exam. 

One of the key lessons from January was the quality of our notetaking and whether we were writing enough for each question in Section A. Remember: you need to write a minimum of THREE well-developed paragraphs for EACH question in Section A. 

Finally, remember the most important thing for BOTH Section A and Section B:

READ AND ANSWER THE QUESTION!

Good luck with your revision - this is your last formal practice before the real thing in May. Take it seriously!
