    It is impossible to say without seeing your paper.

    Are you writing something for every part of every question? (Even if you do not know anything for one part of a question, writing anything sensible will probably get you a mark).

    Are you showing your workings clearly in the numbers parts? Even if you make a mistake you will still get most of the marks if your workings are clear.

    Are you writing sentences for the written parts of questions (and not just bullet points)?
