    Hello,

    Can someone please advise how many minutes roughly should we allow per mark? It was about 1.8 minutes for the SPs, I'm not sure if this recommendation is the same for SA3.

    Thank you.

    The exam is now 3hrs and 20 minutes long, so that's 200 minutes, which gives 2 minutes per mark.

    You may of course prefer to reduce this and allow some time for thinking at the start and reviewing at the end.
