    Hi is anyone can help with time management in the exam? It seems I can’t finish Q1 in 90 minutes and I need to spend 15mins to read case, is it normal for everybody? 🙁 I really don’t know how to improve it and make efficient answer? I don’t know how long the answer should be ok? How many sentences in a paragraph? and how many words in one sentence? For P1, you can not just give a simple and short sentence as I know.

    Thanks for anyone can reply to me.

    2-3 sentences in a paragraph – one paragraph for each point you make. answers for Q1 are lengthy so use sub-headings to make it pleasing to the eyes of the examiner. And don’t worry, even the best of candidates feel pressured for time! The exams are purposely designed as such in order to test student technique. An efficient answer is one that does not repeat the same points again and again. Just for the record, I got 61% in June 2013 exam and I left quite a few blanks! All the best 🙂
