SQA UPDATE
National 5 History and Modern Studies question papers
It has been agreed that the duration of the National 5 History and National 5 Modern Studies exams will be extended by 15 minutes so that, from 2015 onwards, candidates will have 1 hour and 45 minutes to complete each of these question papers.
This follows feedback from practitioners and evidence gathered during a review of the 2014 exams. The 2015 exam timetable on our website has now been updated to reflect this change. For further information, please see the ‘Updates and Announcements’ section of the National 5 History web page and the National 5 Modern Studies web page
