    Somebody helps me……
    When I practice writing questions for F5 and then I see the answer key.
    I always see that my answers are very very short, and the answers in the answer key are so long (sometimes until 1 page full) for the writing question.

    Now my question: Is it necessary to write such a long answer like that ??? because when I see the marks, it is only 4 or 5 marks.

    1 mark = 1 relevant point made. Sometimes one sentence will be enough sometimes you will need 2 or 3 sentences to gain 1 mark. Usually not more than 3. That depends on intellectual level of requirement.
