Welsh Exam Strategy
Subject knowledge still needs exam method. Marks go to answers that match the question, in the time available.
General approach
• Know how long each section roughly deserves
• Answer the question asked (not everything you know)
• Leave proofreading time on writing
• In oracy, keep talking with reasons rather than freezing
Reading vs writing
Reading: evidence from the text, short and accurate.
Writing: plan 3 bullets, write, proofread mutations and endings.
Practice questions
1. Why plan writing even under time pressure?
2. What should you save time for at the end of writing?
