よくあるミス

1. 1high影響する配点: 8Food waste and sustainability

   Covering only one side of a two-part essay stem, for example detailing the environmental impacts of food waste while barely mentioning the ethical issues the same question asks for.

   回避方法: Plan both required elements as two labelled sections before you write, and check your word count is roughly balanced between them once you have finished.
2. 2high影響する配点: 4Food safety and quality

   Writing a Section B essay on chemical or microbiological safety without naming a specific example, such as the mycotoxins patulin or ochratoxin A, or the additives aspartame or MSG.

   回避方法: Learn two or three named examples for each major topic in your option and use their proper names in your essay rather than describing the category alone.
3. 3medium影響する配点: 2Chemical contamination

   Confusing the regulatory terms Maximum Residue Limit, Acceptable Daily Intake and Tolerable Daily Intake when discussing chemical safety limits.

   回避方法: Fix each term to what it actually limits: MRL is a residue level in a specific food, ADI is a daily intake judged safe over a lifetime, TDI is the equivalent for a contaminant rather than an intentional additive.
4. 4medium影響する配点: 3Food sustainability

   Giving a superficial, descriptive answer instead of an analytical one, for example stating that monocropping harms the environment without explaining how it causes soil erosion and nutrient depletion.

   回避方法: After every claim, add one sentence explaining the process that causes it, not just the fact that it happens.
5. 5medium影響する配点: 2Allergens

   Treating food allergy and food intolerance as the same thing, when an allergy is an immune-mediated response and an intolerance is not.

   回避方法: State the mechanism whenever the distinction matters: allergy involves the immune system reacting to a protein, intolerance does not.
6. 6medium影響する配点: 3Controls and legislation

   Assuming Environmental Health Practitioners only carry out reactive restaurant inspections, missing their broader statutory duties in drinking water surveillance, food sampling and outbreak tracing.

   回避方法: Learn the full range of a named body's statutory duties, not just its most familiar role, before you use it as evidence in an essay.
7. 7high影響する配点: 4Paper technique

   Treating Section A part (b), worth 15 marks, as a set of brief notes rather than an extended, coherent piece of analysis.

   回避方法: Write Section A part (b) in full paragraphs with the same structure you would use for a Section B essay, since it carries almost as many marks as one.
8. 8high影響する配点: 4Quality of written communication

   Losing Level 4 marks through poor structure, repetitive points and a lack of precise, subject-specific terminology in the 20-mark essays.

   回避方法: Plan each essay in named paragraphs before you write, and use the correct technical term the first time a concept appears rather than an everyday substitute.
