guys in my school have told me its really tough. Those giving it know more. I'll ask them and let u know. And they told me it's a 16hr paper. Is it true????
-
Art is a 16 hour paper. I think it is just throwing paint about. When your pots are empty, you go home.

lolzz...but ain't 16hrs just too much.
My friends showed me their drawings(which were really good)but their art teacher said that it would only fetch an E. How demeaning!!
-
Right an art exam should depend on coursework. Every piece of art takes so long and frankly I wouldnt have the patience.
-
I totally s at art.

adi told me ur givin art in nov and that u just took it up...i suggest u do art for alevels and leave it for now cuz it's not simple...even in the igs.
concentrate more on ur other subjects than suddenly taking up art and playing with paints.(although ur good..i saw some of ur drawings). My friends draw equally well but the teacher asks them to work harder and slog and slog and slog...seriously
-
he is currently planning to take the exam during may/june..
but still as everyone adviced ... there aint much time..
-
I didn't take Art and Design for my IGCSE's but i know from my friends that the exam is for long hours! What do you need? well obviously your tools for drawing and all of that, the teacher would tell you depending on what you've worked on throughout those two years.
@ nid404, Lol the same thing here! our Art teacher never seems satisifed with any of her art students i don't why, although i find them very great :-\

i just took it~~~
the art & design exam has 2 papers, one's fashion design and the other one's observational studies
there're many topics to choose from
in the fashion design one, there's always fashion design(like clothing), book covers, logo and etc
and in the observational one, there are different topics every year~~
each exam i think is about 10 or 15hours? i dont really remember exactly~ but trust me, it's not much~
you're gonna need all those time cuz you've got to research, make plans, drafts and they're all gonna count
well~ i got a B! i was so shocked cuz i was so confident that i could get at least an A!!
here are my works:
(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll69/bbspisecs/PICT0013.jpg) this is the fashion design, i chose the logo design and this is the final work on the tshirt
(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll69/bbspisecs/IMG_1627.jpg) this is my final work on the observational study
-

i wen to the link and saw the drawings (enlarged), i think now that u got wat u deserve, the shirt which u drew was too plain, if u could have added any abstract paint work in it, that would have got u good grades, the second painting is good, but the mixing of the colors could have been much better, may be this is wat made u get lower marks...
-
which link?
-
@samir-ur painting r sexy maannnn........im gonna meet as soon as ur boards get over. i showed these to my friends and they loved it too....even my parents........they're amazing :)
-

the main point wasnt the tshirt, it was the logo
the logo was actually difficult~ my teacher told me that it should be simple
but i think that they wanted more creative works so i think thats why i didnt do well on that
but if you choose fashion design, like the clothings and stuff, it's more generously marked
the marks was from the average of the two
you have no idea how huge my second painting was, it was like a A2 paper
and just to let you know, igcse is a really basic thing~
i mean it's too basic and not much of any detail
so for art, they just want to see that you've got the potential to draw, to use the colours and how creative you are
it wasnt the way i mixed the colours cuz thats how it's supposed to be
to show a contrast of the object like the shades and stuff, which also makes it look 3D
and exaggerations are good, they want to see that you know how the thing works(eg. where the shades are ie how to make it 3D)
oh i guess i forgot to tell you that i got B for the logo and A for the observational studies
these are the advice i can give you~ i'm doing my As right now and it's really A LOT of working comparing to igcse
i've already started my course work which will be based on faces...
i'm drawing different faces right now... (A LOT of faces)
you could talk to me if you're interested, i mean i hope that i could help you in some ways
and i'll see if i can, i'll show you a work of my friend who got an A for art (B for observational and A for fashion design)
her work was like sooo messy, the observational wasnt the best and the fashion design in my opinion was just okay...
and she still got an A so it was from the average of the two~
my B was because of the logo design which brought me down

yes, that was only the observational studies and i did get an A(2nd drawing, the necklace)
the first one(tshirt) was the logo design, they are TWO different exam papers
the main point was not the tshirt, it was the logo, this was just the final work(the logo on the tshirt)
if you choose to do the logo design, the final work has to be the logo itself and the logo on the object
and as i told you, the general mark is the average of the two
and the logo brought my mark down from which i got a B

listen dude, u're tellin me the things that i know, tell me something i don't know.
ur logo got wat it deserves and the second painting got wat it deserves,
stop defending ur self, u know, and i know that it worth the marks that it got.
i'm being a bit rude, sorry 4 dat, but dats the truth .
