    hello, sir I wanted to ask u that many teachers told me that writing your brainstorming and answer plan on the answer booklet, they say it’s only allowed on exam question paper.

    secondly in a question where there is analytical review and ratios to be calculated and briefing notes. is it best to calculate ratios first than start the answer. or leave few pages , calculate ratios and start answer on the pages u left?

    “… they say it’s only allowed on exam question paper”

    Utter nonsense – those teachers should be relieved of their duties with immediate effect!

    “is it best to calculate ratios first than start the answer. or leave few pages , calculate ratios and start answer on the pages u left”

    Calculate them first, head them “Appendix” and start your report

    If you were to do it your way, how many pages are you going to leave? And then you’re going to have to keep moving onwards 3 pages to find the ratios, back 3 pages to write, on 3 pages to get the comparative, back 3 pages ….

    Don’t be foolish!

    Do the ratios, head them Appendix, and write your report
