Don’t try to be really original with them, just keep them simple and nail them.  \nThe best advice I got from my teacher about this exam was…  \nthis is probably a pretty specific problem, but my wonderful teacher kept telling me to stop overthinking the questions and not waffle on in my  \nanswers. Many students don’t know this, but you can actually write your answers in dot-points, and many examiners prefer this because it’s clearer.  \nIn the month before this VCE exam, I…  \nguess I studied Psych at least a little bit every day. I made a million tablesand mind-maps summarising topics or comparing different theories and stuck them up all around my house until there were no free walls left. After reading these for months, the information stuck with me. To stay sane in the lead-up to exams I went running or cycling every afternoon and drank a lot of tea.  \nIn the week before this VCE exam I...  \ndid practice exams. But almost more important than completing practice exams is correcting them and understanding how your answer differs from the given solution. I kept a little notebook, and I’d write down every question I got wrong, what the correct answer was, and the key terms needed to get full marks.  \nOn exam day, I prepared myself by…  \nthe Psych exam started at 9:00 am, so I don’t think I did anything beforehand, other than have breakfast and read over my errors notebook.  \nAfter the exam, I…  \nwent straight home. The exam was on a Friday and I didn’t have another exam until mid-way through the following week, so that afternoon I just did some ‘light’ Methods study and went for a run.  \nThe best exam advice I received from my parents, siblings or friends was…  \ncalm down.  \nI didn’t work a part-time job during year 12 because…  \nI didn’t want to add another thing to an already stressful year, and would have struggled to find the time for it.  \nFor more tips like this and for advice about looking after yourself during vce exams, please visit [www.education.vic.gov.au/school/](www.education.vic.gov.au/school/)[ ](www.education.vic.gov.au/school/)[students/pages/vce.aspx](students/pages/vce.aspx)","cbCaitCCaZOHrPer","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitCCaZOHrPer","pdf",274459,"English","# VCE Psychology exam advice\n## Core approach to answering\n## Research methods and examples\n## Study routine before the exam\n## Week-before practice and correction\n## Exam-day preparation\n## After the exam and personal support","[{\"question\":\"What is the main writing advice for VCE Psychology answers?\",\"answer\":\"Word answers carefully and include the key terms.
