VOORBEREIDENDE EKSAMEN 2023
FOR ATTENTION / VIR AANDAG:
THE CHIEF INVIGILATOR / DIE HOOF TOESIGHOUER
SUBJECT / VAK TECHNICAL SCIENCES/TEGNIESE WETENSKAPPE
SUBJECT CODE / VAKKODE 11101
PAPER / VRAESTEL 1
DATE OF EXAMINATION / DATUM VAN EKSAMEN 22 SEPTEMBER 2023
The TECHNICAL SCIENCES/TEGNIESE WETENSKAPPE (Paper 1 / Vraestel 1) written on 22
September 2023 has reference. It has come to our attention that there was an anomaly on the
data sheet which impacted on questions 6.1.3, 6.1.4 and 6.1.6.
To ensure that your candidates are not disadvantaged and prejudiced in way, you are advised to
please ask Educators to ignore the above-mentioned questions.
In other words, the paper must be marked out of a total of 140 instead of 150 and then the learners’
marks must be converted back to a mark out of 150. E.g., Should a learner have attained 80/140,
then that mark is recalculated as 86/150.
Use the a b
formula: 140
x 100 = b. Then,
100
x 150 = c
c is the mark that is entered into SASAMS out of 150.
