    Hi there
    Sir my last attempt of SBL examination i got 40 marks although i think the paper was quite easy and i did well
    Whilst writing in the paper i noticed that i used half of the writing paper other students mostly used!
    Could that be the reason that i got 40marks cause i was satisifed with my solutions
    I thought the examiner would appreciate to the point answers

    ‘To the point is ok’ but answers must be full and complete and really explain what your reasoning is. Bullet points of one or two words (the most extreme ‘to the point’ are of little use as it is impossible to display your ability.

    It can be useful to think of the examiner as a 16-year old who has little experience of business and to whom you must really explain your points so that you are understood. This idea helps you to ‘go the extra mile’ so that you can properly demonstrate your thought-processes to the examiner.
