常见错误

1. 1high涉及分数: 2Structured explanation questions

   Naming two points in a 4-mark paired explanation question but only explaining the consequence of one of them.

   如何避免: Write two separate mini-paragraphs, each with a point and its explanation. Half a finished answer scores half the marks, 2 out of 4, not more.
2. 2high涉及分数: 3Source-based analysis, Question 5

   Copying sentences directly from Source A in Question 5(a) instead of using it to build an original point.

   如何避免: Put what the source shows into your own words, then say why it matters to the question asked. Lifted text alone earns little.
3. 3high涉及分数: 5Extended evaluation, Question 6

   Writing a one-sided answer in Question 6, covering only benefits or only drawbacks.

   如何避免: Give one clear paragraph for and one against before you reach a conclusion. A one-sided script is capped well below the top level.
4. 4high涉及分数: 3Extended evaluation, Question 6

   Ending Question 6 with a summary of points already made instead of a genuine concluding judgement.

   如何避免: Write a final sentence that directly answers the question with a stated position, not a recap of what has already been argued.
5. 5medium涉及分数: 2Citizenship, statutory bodies

   Confusing prejudice, discrimination, and stereotyping, or naming the wrong statutory body, such as mixing up the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission with the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland.

   如何避免: Learn the exact remit of each named body and term separately. Naming the wrong one signals a gap even if the surrounding point is correct.
6. 6medium涉及分数: 2Northern Ireland context

   Giving generic life advice in an answer where the question requires a Northern Ireland-specific policy or mechanism.

   如何避免: Where a question is framed around Northern Ireland, name the specific local body, policy, or piece of legislation rather than general advice that could apply anywhere.
7. 7medium涉及分数: 2Thematic discussion, Question 5

   Writing Question 5(b) as a disconnected list of factors rather than a discussion that links them.

   如何避免: Show how the factors relate to or affect each other in at least one sentence, rather than presenting them as separate, unconnected points.
8. 8medium涉及分数: 4Time management

   Running out of time before Question 6 because Questions 1 to 4 took longer than their share of the hour.

   如何避免: Each unit runs at one minute per mark. Move on from Questions 1 to 4 once you reach the 38-minute mark, whatever is left unfinished.
