Five tips for success in US politics

All too often, examiners read answers which, with a few changes, could be improved significantly. You need to know how you can develop a particular skill/ approach rather than simply being told where you could improve. Based on examiner experience and the answers of successful students, this article looks at five typical approaches of strong examination scripts. It also gives some strategies which you can use to develop the skills which will help you to score those higher marks.

Some students see their marks go down for each of the questions they answer, usually because they spend too much time on the first answer and then have to rush the later ones. Answers to the final 15- and 45-mark question, are often too short to reach high marks.
