how to structure answers in a level physics exam and time management?

so first, ik this kinda sounds stupid, but in a level physics paper 1 tmrw, how do i structure answers. In class we always do our answers on lined paper so dont really get used to exam environment. Just to check you put your working out in the white space above and then ur final answer in the answer section right ?and also about time management in exams, does anyone have any tips since i am kinda slow. lastly, idk why it hit me last night, but im worried my calculator is gonna run outta battery, does this happen? i have a fx-991ex so it has solar so should be fine right?

yes put your working out in the white space and make sure you put the final answer on the line to get the marks. for timing id say do the long answer questions first because lots more marks available there, and in the multiple choice if you are getting stuck for ages on a question, just guess and move on coz that one mark you could get somewhere else and you have a 1/4 chance anyway
