I’ve previously studied with the open university so I’m familiar with distance learning. One area I know I need to focus on is changing my mind set of giving vast amount of details and structuring my answers and padding them out, need to focus on being more direct and succinct. Great advice, thank you!

Thank you for the video. Very helpful. I am struggling with the "critical writing" and answering the scenario based questions. I mean I know the answer, but I don't know how to incorporate the scenario into it. Do you have any advice on that? Any phrasing method or something would be great. Many thanks

Thanks for your informative video I've heard many suggesting to split my answer into smaller paragraphs with headlines rather than 1 big paragraphs.. What do you suggest? Like if they ask about the communication used.. Is it better to discuss the three types of communications used separately in three paragraphs or 1 big paragraphs but in order like start with written, then verbal, then graphic?

@StockwellSafety 3 жыл бұрын

Having the three headings could help to minimise repetition. Just be sure to always keep it relevant to the scenario.

OPINION WILL DEFER FROM PERSON TO PERSON PLUS THE PERSON WHO IS CHECKING THIS. SO THIS IS A SUBJECTIVE . SO OPINIONS OF ANSWER PAPER CHECKING WILL ALSO DEFER WHICH ULTIMATELY WILL REST IN FAURE OF CANDIDATE EVEN IF HE HAS ADDRESSED THE POINTS.

Great videos. Is the word count advise at 17:02-17:06 accurate. I'm confused, I thought 10 point question would be 300 to 330 words

@StockwellSafety 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Sean, Yeah, you're right. What I'm trying to say in the video is try and hit 10 points (if it's a 10 point question), with each point being 10 words (don't know where 100 came from). Basic arithmetic fail by me! I'll make some edits and re-upload this video.

Are general certificates with the BSC done in the same way? I have an upcoming exam in April and then again in May.

@StockwellSafety 3 жыл бұрын

If you have 2 exams to do it might be that you're doing the 'old' format certificate. The 'new' format involves 1 exam (open book) and a practical risk assessment project.

We had a week in the classroom which was a total waste of time - death by upto 178 power point slides per day over five days (no other materials other than book) the exam is April 5th and we all (in the group) work full time. Feel i should have been more informed prior to taking the course, i am putting in two hours a night but really dont think thisnis enough after at least 9 hour day and sometimes a 3 hour journey! wish i had seen this before i might have requested to be on the next exam
