Take a moment to focus on the right approach for any exam.
Effective time management
• Watch the clock, allocate time to each mark and move on if you get behind.
• Take a few moments to think what the requirements are asking for and how you are going to
answer them.
• Remember one mark is usually allocated for each point you give in a discursive question.
Effective planning
• You should read through the paper and plan the order in which you will tackle the questions. Always start with the one you feel most confident about.
• Read the requirements carefully: focus on mark allocation, question words and potential overlap between requirements.
• Identify and make sure you pick up the easy marks available in each question.
Effective layout
• Present your numerical solutions using the standard layouts you have seen. Show and reference your workings clearly.
• With written elements try and make a number of distinct points using headings and short paragraphs. You should aim to make a separate point for each mark.
• Ensure that you explain the points you are making ie why is the point a strength, criticism or opportunity?
• Give yourself plenty of space to add extra lines as necessary, it will also make it easier for the examiner to mark.
