Here is the simplest Exam Technique tip ever:
Don’t fold the exam paper back on itself
Students typically fold the paper back to reduce it to A4 size, and to focus on just one page. Don’t do this!
Often, questions straddle more than one page. These will appear opposite sides of the fold. Keep the paper open, and you will be able to see all the information at once. Something from an earlier part of the question may well be vital for answering the last part. Don’t hide it from view!
