Stretegy is an appropriate word to use for
your approach to the examination on the day.It has been said that about 50
percent of your chances of success relate to your examination skill rather than
to your subject knowledge. So check and double-check your exam dates and times.
Check what you are allowed and what you are not allowed to take in with you and
have these ready the day before. Budget your time. Do not waste time
elaborating adequate answers if you ought to be moving to the next question.
Always attempt to answer all the questions. Follow the instructions. It is a
good idea to double-check this before the exam. Read through the whole question
paper before starting to write. Take each question as you come to it and think
how you might cope with it. Then
move on to the next question and do the same
again. By the time you get to the last question, you will have found the
question easier than they seemed at first glance. Spend at least five minutes
per question thinking about and planning your answer. This is never a waste of
time. Underline the key words in the question that indicate what you are
required to do. Again, it is useful half way through writing the answer, to
check back that you are doing what you should. Make your answer legible. You can’t change your handwriting
but if it is very tiny or very large use double spacing to make it easy on the
eye for the reader.
