    Hi,

    I’m currently taking SBL mock exams each day and trying to get my answer structure right as well as meeting the criteria for professional marks. However, I’m a little confused how they are awarded.
    For example, if I have an 18 mark question and I give one fully developed answer and 8 relatable answers but not quite developed, in my mind that would score me about 10 marks, but if the professional marks are say 2, would I get full marks for that one developed answer or does it have to be all or is it down to the marker?

    Thanks

    I don’t think its as cut and dried as that. I suggest you look at the useful material on professional skills found on this link, including the first video on how to plan answers in teh SBL exam.
