About this lesson
You'll discover two different approaches to organising your answer—one using direct requirements, another using themes from the scenario—so you can choose the structure that works best for you. The key insight: spending time on careful planning before you write saves time overall and helps you download relevant information from the scenario more efficiently into each section of your answer.
