The exam is tomorrow and I am still not 100% sure on the exam technique.

Our teacher has told us to define, identify and explain with an emphasis on examples.

But i am more suited to a PEA style structure and was wondering if anyone has any alternatives for essay structure and overall exam technique.

I am on AQA, cheers for the advice it is much clearer than my teachers :smile:

How many examples and synoptic links would you include?

Hoping for an environment essay, with short answers on education, benefits and the economic crisis.

It's ok! :smile: I'm also doing AQA. I would say you should do 3-4 points (PEELed), as well as your intro an conclusion :biggrin:
