    Practise questions and look carefully at the model answers to ensure that you address the queston set. I would guess that not addressing the requirements accurately could be a major cause of failure.

    Read the technical articles and watch the examing team’s videos on how to approach the exam.

    Not really. You have got this far so you must be doing something right. Just make sure the markers know what workings refer to which figure.

    I think this question/request was not adequately responded to ….is it the use of appendices?

    The question will not be adequately responded to if the question is not accurately asked.
