General advice
• In addition to covering the content outlined in the advance information, students
and teachers should consider how to:
• manage their revision of parts of the specification which may be assessed in areas
not covered by the advance information
• manage their revision of other parts of the specification which may provide
knowledge which helps with understanding the areas being tested in 2022.
• For specifications with synoptic assessments, topics not explicitly given in the
advance information may appear, e.g. where students are asked to bring together
knowledge, skills and understanding from across the specification.
• For specifications with optional papers/topics/content, students should only refer to
the advance information for their intended option.
• For specifications with NEA, advance information does not cover any NEA
components.
A link to the Joint Council for Qualifications guidance document on advance information
can be found on the Joint Council for Qualifications website or here.

Advance Information
Subject specific section
• Advance information will be provided for each paper and for each tier of entry.
• The information is presented in approximate specification order and does not reflect
the order of the questions.
• Questions may be answerable using one or more of the indicated areas of
specification content.
• The areas of content listed are suggested as key areas of focus for revision and final
preparation, in relation to the May–June 2022 examinations.
• The aim should still be to cover all specification content in teaching and learning.
• Students may need to draw on prior knowledge and skills.
• Students will still be expected to apply their knowledge to unfamiliar contexts.
• Students responses to questions may draw upon knowledge, skills and
understanding from across the content listed when responding to questions.
• Students will be credited for using any relevant knowledge from any other topic areas
when answering questions.
