TIPS:
A good answer depends on, among other things, careful planning and a sound structure.
Work out how much time can be spent on each question so that you do not run out of
time.
Identify the relevant content for a question – relevance is key to a good answer!
Less is more – answer by formulating short, concise sentences and paragraphs. A good
rule of thumb is to avoid compound sentences (with more than one verb) and to limit
your sentence length to no more than one-and-a-half typed lines per sentence.
Repeating the facts of a question verbatim is irrelevant and a waste of time.
Remember to answer the question – avoid simply giving information.
