and an answer proved to be memorised scores zero. Anything a hundred thousand candidates
have written before you earns nothing.

introductionbodyconclusionorphan — connects to nothing
How you wrote it the exam is a clock as much as a page
Shape of the answer
Vocabulary range, repeats, upgrades
Your drafts the line that matters
