Revise for the mock.
Familiarise yourself with the format of the mock, especially time allocation for each section.
Read each mock question carefully and consider what the examiner would consider an inclusive answer.

Overall, treat the mock like the actual exam.
By following these five simple steps your mocks will serve as a excellent benchmark to determine what revision techniques are successful and what areas might need extra attention.
