1 Point, Explain, Example, paragraph should earn you 3 marks if in full detail.

- For a 4 mark question you would do 2 PEE paragraphs
- For a 6 mark question you would do 2/3 PEE paragraphs (depending on whether you feel the initial 2 paragraphs are detailed enough to get 3 marks each, if you don't think so then do another just in case)
- For an 8 mark question you would do 3 PEE paragraphs

There is no difference in how many paragraphs you should do between explain and describe questions.

Hope that helps.

I got 96% in the prelim only because they made the prelim very easy.. I don't think the exam will be easy and although I got an A I'm not guaranteed an A in the exam
