    It’s suitable for all written questions whether they are in numerate or a non-numerate paper.

    If it’s a written wordy answer rather than a numbers answer, then the system is what you should use

    HOWEVER! In a 28 mark question, that’s 50.4 minutes of time allocation!

    It’s NOT 28 minutes

    So, in a 28 marker, out of 50.4 minutes, 14 minutes is reading, thinking and planning. That leaves 36.4 minutes to write out your 28 points in 28 separate sentences / paragraphs and, year, that should be enough ……..

    …….. providing you write NO MORE than 3 lines for each sentence

    Ok?
