text: how long i have to write on a question in exam, should i write extra long to get high marks? i've posted earlier a question about tips n tricks in exams and got very useful information from all friends online. now i've another question that is.  some friends said there's need to fill many sheets to get high marks while i know some subjects on which we can't write too much ... should i have to write down extra stories related to that question in exam. in an exam list the facts first, then give some examples.  make sure you are answering the question, otherwise you are going to use exam time to write bull and not get full credit for it.
