How do I plan, answer and structure an 8- and 16-marker? (AQA A-Level Business)

Hi all,

I HATE exam-style questions. Whenever I plan a 16-mark answer, my plans are bare-bones because I can't allocate enough time to planning, and I keep taking WAY too long to fully answer a 16-mark question, only to get like 8 marks (regardless of how knowledgeable I am about the topic). I hardly know how to structure a 16-marker.

My teacher currently seems more interested in teaching the subject's content rather than teaching how to answer said questions, yet she keeps giving them to us for homework. Is there a way to plan, answer and structure these questions so that I'd get like 90-100% of the marks per question?
