    Hello,

    I have written this paper 3 times and failed with 36%. I realise now that my analysis and answer to Question 1 is very weak compared to the structed comprehensive answer.

    My lecturer has been very kind as to coach us on a technique that will help, regardless of the topics that come in the exams, to understand and interpret the question correctly.

    But is there a way that I can use this method without running out of time for the question? I usually allot about 50 mins to this question, but I always run over on time.

    Somehow that 15 mins for planning flies by so quickly. I really want to pass this time, so I’m covering all my bases.

    Thanks in advance.

    practice practice practice.

    Alot strict time per question based on marks being offered… it’s usually 1.8 mins per mark.

    Follow the time, if you reach the end of your alloted time, leave an empty page and move on to the next question… keep doing that until you reach the end. If you have time then return to your incomplete answers to complete them. This way you will atleast attempt all questions even if you haven’t completed them and stand a better chance of passing

    I always do the easiest question first it gives you a feeling of confidence. BUT NO MATTER WHICH QUESTION YOU DO STICK TO THE TIME ALLOTTED.
