Key exam techniques Section C
• Write the topic next to each question
• Read the question carefully and highlight the keywords
• Make sure you are labelling your answers carefully as you go, i.e. 1(a)(i)
• Although the section is called ‘Long Questions’, this doesn’t mean you need to provide long answers
● Use bullet points
● Keep answers concise and to the point
● Don’t write paragraphs as you are more likely to make mistakes
● Start each question on a new page
● Give yourself plenty of space between each part of a question so you can go back and make any changes
● Do not correct any mistakes using tippex or scribbling, one line through the incorrect answer is enough
• You can be asked to draw diagrams in this section
● Diagrams should be drawn clearly in pencil
● Use at least half a page for diagrams so you can label them clearly
● Use a biro to include as many labels as possible
● Only include a diagram if they specifically ask for one in the question
● If using a diagram to help explain your answer, you must include bullet points in your answer as well to ensure full marks.
