Examinations

Below are some exam tips for students:

Topic	Tips
Exam Day Preparation	Take time to carefully read the information, instructions and advice on the front of the exam paper. Make sure you understand how the marks are allocated. The number of marks allocated to each question is your guide to how much detail to include in your answer.
Your Responses	Read the question carefully and make sure you fully understand what is being asked. You are marked on how well you answer the question set. Keep asking yourself if you are answering the question. This will ensure that you keep your answers relevant. Stick to the point. Don’t waste valuable time writing details and facts that do not help answer the question.
Managing Your Time	Make sure you know how much time is allocated for the exam, and regularly check how much time you have left. Manage your time carefully. Make sure you allow enough time for each question. Don’t rewrite the question in your answer booklet. This wastes time as well as space in your answer booklet.
Review	If time permits, check over your answers and correct any errors.
