SEVEN: PRACTISE PLANNING ANSWERS
Working out plans for
potential questions is a good revision tactic. It not only helps you to work
out logical connections between the points of an argument or the sequence of
operations you might need to perform in the exam. But it also helps you to do
this quickly and efficiently in the exam. Sometimes you will receive a mark or
two for the plan if you have been unable to finish an answer but seem to be
have been writing on the write lines.
EIGHT: WORK OUT TIMINGS
Before the exam, work out
exactly how much time that you will have to answer each question, ensuring that
you take into account time needed for reading the question, doing a brief plan,
writing your answer and checking it afterwards.
NINE: Practice Writing
Answers
Many students find that they
have difficulty writing to a time limit, and so it is worthwhile trying to
write your answer against the clock. You need to discipline yourself not to
write beyond the allotted span of time as you won’t be able to overrun beyond
the end of the allocated time on the day.
TEN: Specialists Terms
While marks may not be
deducted for mis-spelling of general vocabulary, you may find that penalties
are imposed if you mis-spell subject specific words. For examples, a politics
student would be expected to know how to spell ‘government’ or a biology
student would be expected to know how to spell ‘mitochondrion’.
