9. Read the questions very carefully before answering. Where a question asks that you
address more than one aspect, each element of the question should be addressed in
your answer. Also, use the marks allocated to a question as guideline on how much
information to provide in your answer. If a question counts only 1 mark, it is not
necessary to write a paragraph or an essay. Likewise, if a question counts 4 or more
marks, it is not sufficient to write only Yes/No or a few words.
10. Where a question asks that you answer in your own words, please do so. Failure to
paraphrase the information found in the study material constitutes plagiarism. No
marks will be awarded to answers that contain plagiarism.
