Dear Tutor,
Would you recommend reading all exhibits of question A before answering any of the requirements?
My intended approach for question A was to read the exhibits applicable to the particular requirement and then answer that particular requirement. However, when reviewing my answers against the sample answers I have noticed that they sometimes refer to other parts, which were mentioned in the other exhibits.
I am therefore wondering if it is worth the trade-off: offering a more comprehensive answer but then potentially running out of time on other questions? (I am a slow reader and often struggle with time management.)
Thank you

Yes, my post relates to the APM exam. Sorry for the confusion but on the practice platform, section A questions usually contain 4-5 exhibits and then also 1-2 appendices. (One exhibit on the practice platform seem to correspond with one paragraph in the exam kit question / past exam questions.)
So you recommend reading all paragraphs/exhibits and appendices before starting to write down any answer?
Thank you
