    How much time have you spent practicing questions? Practicing questions is the most important thing of all.

    I assume that you have a new Revision/Exam Kit (the new ones contain lots of the new style of questions as well as long-form questions) and you must practice every question.

    Don’t look at the answers until you have had a proper go at the question. When you have, study and learn from the answers.

    The more questions you have attempted properly by yourself, the less stressful you will find the real exam.

    In particular, study the written parts of questions. Have a good go yourself first, at least noting down the points you would have made. Then check with the answer and see if you were answering what was asked – if not, then learn why not.

    The biggest reason for people failing is that they do not write much if anything for the written parts of questions. They concentrate on the calculations and largely ignore the written parts. 50% is the exam will be written as opposed to calculations!
