    Kim,

    Is it worth asking for another answer booklet at the start of the exam to use as the answer plan or is it better to include the answer plan in the answer booklet alongside the actual answer? I know some use the question booklet as the plan but I don’t enjoy flicking between answer booklet and question paper for the plan as it becomes tedious and unorganised.

    I worry that putting the plan alongside the answer makes it harder for the examiner…

    Any advice?

    Don’t ask for an extension booklet for this purpose as invigilator could validly decline to provide. Set out on separate page headed “plan” …. marker will not mind.
