    I’m reviewing the BPP revision kit at the moment and the answer on question 46 seems quite strange for me. It quotes: “Let us first consider the operational aspects of the development of a manufacturing or assembly facility in China”. Do such sentences add any marks? I’m confused, should I boost my answer sheet with sentences like this to add marks? Thank you

    You are correct. That sentence would gain no marks and is a waste of time. If you feel it is necessary, just put a heading like ‘Chinese facility’.

    Headings are expected in reports to make them easier to follow and to allow a contents page (in real life). Headings can also help markers in other answers.
