How to Write Short Answer Questions on the Exam?

How to Write Short Answer Questions on the Exam?

1. Read the question and make sure you understand what it is asking.
If you don't, circle the question and ask your teacher later.

2. Look for the points that are given to each question. If a question has 3 points, make sure you provide 3 different points.

3. If a short answer has 2 questions in one, read the entire question first. To begin, answer the first half of the question. Then, read the question again, and answer the second part.
Afterwards, read your answer and make sure the answers connect to each other.

4. Details! Details! Details! Remember, you are showing me how much you know about the topic. Don't forget to include the what, who, where, why, how and other key word details.
If you are being vague, that just tells much how much you DON'T know! (But be careful with time)

5. Always make an attempt to answer a question. Don't leave it blank!
