Multiple
Choice
For
multiple
choice
questions
the
best
strategy
is
to
eliminate
the
distracters,
usually
there
are
two
answers
that
are
clearly
wrong.
You
will
then
be
left
with
two
choices
and
you
then
need
to
carefully
read
the
statements
to
make
a
judgement
of
which
is
the
best
or
correct
answer.
Never
leave
a
question
unanswered
guess
if
you
have
to!
Short
Answer
Answer
the
question!!
Look
at
the
number
of
marks
available
and
make
sure
you
have
one
point
for
each
mark.
Also
make
sure
that
you
use
the
correct
scientific
language
and
terms
and
write
neatly.
In
an
exam,
the
number
of
lines
available
also
give
you
an
indication
of
how
much
information
is
expected.
Extended Answer
In
Human
Biology
an
extended
answer
question
is
NOT
an
essay.
This
means
you
dont
need
an
introduction
or
conclusion.
Dont
waste
time
re-writing
the
question.
You
need
to
be
concise
and
just
answer
the
question.
A
shot-gun
approach
where
you
just
write
everything
you
know
about
a
certain
topic
may
get
you
a
few
marks,
but
generally
this
is
not
a
good
strategy
as
you
waste
a
lot
of
time
writing
information
that
doesnt
relate
to
the
question
and
you
miss
key
information
related
to
the
question.
You
can
write
paragraphs,
but
keep
you
sentences
short
and
to
the
point.
Responses
could
include
clearly
labelled
diagrams
with
explanatory
notes;
lists
of
points
with
linking
sentences;
clearly
labelled
tables
and
graphs;
and
annotated
flow
diagrams
with
introductory
notes.

Comments
When
answering
any
Short
Answer
or

Human
Biology
it
is
important

are
cues
to
what
is
expected
in
the
answer
