    Exam technique issues:

    1) time management
    2) illegible writing
    3) Answers without any structure
    4) Not answering the requirement ie. answering different question that is asked or you are not hitting the intelectual level of requirement
    5) not relating to scenario enough – answering question too generally.

    Please familirise yourself with following article – you can find others about intelectual levels of ACCA

    https://opentuition.com/wp-content/uploads/group-documents/2/1271219056-AccaEmail-Actionverbs.pdf

    The higher intelectual level the bigger depth of answer is required. Not just stating what u notice from scenario but giving your judgement, opinion what it actually means, why does it matter

    as for No 5) Try answering questions providing knowledge but not from study text or general knowledge but in the context of company in scenario – application of knowledge.

    Although at F8 some descriptive theory knowledge is asked as far as I remember.
