The document provides guidance on answering 6 mark levelled exam questions:
1) Answers can be organized with bullet points for conciseness. Examiners recommend this approach.
2) Answers are assigned a level based on descriptive criteria, such as describing how one or two material properties change, or explaining how different sized atoms in an alloy disrupt the atomic structure and increase strength.
3) High-quality answers specifically refer to the materials mentioned in the exam question and provide their key properties. Weak answers may include unlabelled diagrams.
