9i - Good Exam Technique WILL Gain You Marks

Education : How To Excel In Exams Part III

Just like with coursework, where many students outperform their peers not because of knowledge, but due to better coursework ?technique?, so in exams two people with the same knowledge can get radically different marks due to their application of their own ?exam technique?.

Stopping to think for a second what the examiner might be looking for is definitely good exam technique, and at the very least will ensure that your answers are never far from the mark and can ensure you get full marks for many questions where others may miss a point of two.

Never panic, and always think about what specifically is wanted, and then answer specifically. Often a surprisingly short answer will do, though of course with essay based questions a fair amount is needed.
