    Thanks for 1-5.

    6. but the biggest problem I face in the exam is time pressure. I tried this reading approach but couldn’t finish the whole qus. within this time.

    and if I finish reading within the advised allocated time, majority of the points I was unable to peek for preparing ans. properly.

    So need to know the technique to overcome this.

    6.How much time should I spend to read the full qus. both 50 and 25 marks ? I took 10 min. for 25 and 25 min. for 50 marks qus. So I had 150 min. left for ans 100 marks, 1.5 min. per marks. Attempt 50 marks qus. first.
    [3 hr+15 min=195 min.-(10+10+25)=150 min.]
    My personal point of view is to answer 85-90 marks in exam, which probably get me over 50-55 marks.
    Are these that approaches OK?

    1.You mean I need to keep my sentences short but not losing core points…
    2.As I always mentioned risk and recommendations clearly.I think it may not be the case for me.

    For gaining full marks it is important to write relative points in full details (say, for 1 marks , 1 relative sentence ).

    But my question is:

    [1] should I give additional 1 or 2 relative sentences for maximizing the chance of gaining full marks from a question?
    I am asking this because some of my points may not satisfy the examiner (e.g.: points may not relative / they were lack of details / they went completely wrong )
    Will the examiner consider extra points to give marks ? (say, for a 6 marks qus. where I need to give 6 relative points , but what should be the point of view from the examiner for 7th or 8th point)
    .
    .
    .
    [2] Again, If I write more points than actually needed but not in details, will the examiner consider all these points to calculate total marks for that question?( say, for 6 marks qus. where 6 will explained point needed, I wrote 9 points shortly , will that score like => 9 point x 1/2 marks = 4.5 marks)
