Thank you Professor Henrique, the video was very helpful. I have a query regarding some of the keywords. Most of them are sentence connectors which are useful in paragraph format. However, I prefer to write my answers in pointers to minimise the words used, and ensure that I address the question asked. So is it still recommended to use the keywords even when they seem like extra words which can be eliminated in the pointer form? TIA

@@shyamsampat yes , even though you write your answers in bullet format, you must frame it accordingly to the command word. If it is a comparison, show similarities, if its a discussion or analysis , add a conclusion.

For minutes/points analogies that you make, you dont have any indication that a certain question is a 6 minutes or points question, right? Great job on the video by the way!

@@VictorMTM92 its possible to have an idea. Each command word on the exam has a specific point value. The total for each item set will be 12 points. If there are 4 questions, it would average 3 points per question. However, commands such as "identify," "calculate," and "justify" are typically worth 1 or 2 points. Commands like "analyze," "contrast," and "discuss" are usually worth a minimum of 3 to 6 (or even 8) points. Therefore, to know more precisely the number of points for each command word, you can base it on the number of lines you have to respond, with each line corresponding to one point (1 minute) on the exam.
