Did anyone else find parts of the broadsheet tough to decipher such as the varying shades of red on the 'avergae annual temp.' in Source f? It was shocking, I am red/green colourblind...that was very tough!

It would be easy enough to have your mark adjusted, if the disadvantage was significant.

I'm colourblind too and I know I'd find that annoying.

How do I go about things like that for specific questions? My teacher said that they would make the paper as 'foolproof' as possible, but as I said, that source f and even source e was hard.

If you are slightly colourblind, it would've been tough for you. I'm not sure why they chose two colours which were so similiar in shade/colour. I thought Source C (Map of Leeds) was a bit dodge as well, it was far too detailed....

Ideally you should have mentioned it to the exam supervisor, but nevermind, talk to your principal instead - they can lodge a claim.
