Exam technique

Good exam technique alongside good technical knowledge is key to exam success. But what is good exam technique and how do you improve these skills? 

 

Exam technique includes effective time management to ensure you attempt all question requirements. It includes being able to identify the issues within a requirement that require consideration and for which marks will be available, including those issues that may be hidden within the scenario. It includes how to plan effectively, how to structure your answer and how to convert your plans into final answers.
