10. Professional conduct
Don’t forget about professional conduct. If necessary, write this on a post it and stick it to your desk! Part of your professional conduct marks will be awarded as part of the core module exams. If you miss those marks, you will fail the professional conduct module and will have to repeat. If there is any hint of a prof con situation, cover your back and cover it off!
However, don’t spend ages writing about professional conduct if you haven’t finished the paper. It is easy to write huge amounts about professional conduct and a lot of the questions may seem to have a prof con element to them. My advice would be to explain the issue briefly and go back to it to elaborate if you have the time. You will at least then both finish the paper and get some prof con marks – one without the other isn’t much good!
