    Dear Gromit,

    Hello!

    Along with watching your lectures, how should I practise question in my BPP revision kit esp. for Section B questions?

    Should I try to memorise the exact answers in order to get higher marks? Or alternatively, could you please suggest me a better way of revision (I aim to score higher – more than 60%)?

    Thanks a lot!

    Have a nice weekend!

    Don’t memorise BPP answers. Most marks are for answering scenario-type questions and it unlikely the same would come up.

    Just attempt lots of questions and try to understand what the question really wants and how the answer supplies that by responding to the requirements and any scenario detail.

    Dear Gromit,

    Thanks a lot for your reply!

    Along with recent 2 past papers (Dec 2014 onwards), specimen paper and questions in the revision kit, should I attempt questions in other past papers before Dec 2014 session?

    Thank you once again for your help!

    Have a nice day!

    Yes. They are still relevant (though of course the 35 mark question is no longer there).
