Mrs PenningtonExam & revision notebooks
Red Pen Friday, every Friday

Thirty-one summers of marking. Here's what I was looking for.

Small, printable notebooks from a retired examiner. One technique a day, the right card when the exam room goes wrong, and the paragraph that finally gets the marks.

Questions

How do I get my notebook?

Right after paying you see your download link, and we email it too. It works for 7 days, up to 5 downloads.

Can I get a refund?

Because the download starts straight away, you agree at checkout that the 14-day withdrawal right no longer applies. If your file doesn't work, reply to your download email and we'll put it right.

Does it fit my exam board?

The techniques are general and work for most written exams. Always check your own specification and past papers too, and never take notes or cards into the exam room.
