Not Reading Questions

ProperlySkipping keywords leads to wrong answers

Always read the full question carefully

Poor Time Management

Spending too much time on one question

Leaves other questions unanswered

Image: unsplash.com [{ "selector": ".bdufr-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "80%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".rfmxs-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".isztf-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 433px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

Ignoring Instructions

Missing word limits, sections, or options

Can cost easy marks

Untidy Answer Sheets

Bad handwriting and no spacing

Makes answers hard to evaluate

Writing Irrelevant Content

Long answers without clear points

Do not impress examiners
