You have taken a certain amount of data for your coursework. However, to be fully certain of the conclusion you reach, you would want to look at some other sources. This extra information is known as secondary data. You take information from other people who have done the same experiment as you.
To get the minimum marks for this section, you will need to mention at least one extra set of data (you get given some by the exam board) and comment on the similarities and differences between this information and your own in your conclusion.
To get full marks for the secondary data, you will have to include data from several different sources (which you then reference). So take data from different groups as well as the exam board, and reference where the information is from. Describe and explain how much it supports or undermines your conclusion and explain how confident you are in this data, as well as why you are confident.
This is the section in which students struggle the most to get high marks
