The key for me was understanding where each mark on the paper was hiding. A 10 mark question might have 3 sub questions to it and you need to know how the marks are allocated. It might be 2,4,4 even though you are not told this. The most you should write for 2 marks is 2, 3 line paragraphs. As you will max out on 2 marks anything else you write is a waste. I think this is one of the reasons why people think they may have passed as they have written lots of what the consider to be relevant but the marks are just not available for it.
The other thing is that knowledge will probably get you about 35%. Applying knowledge to the specific scenario will get you another 35% and then the remainder is probably for developing those points which can be tricky.
Sitting a full paper under exam conditions is also key.
Hope that helps and best of luck. You are great to keep on trying. I don’t think I would have your resolve.
