Exam tips

• Planning your answer structure

  Use the PEE (Point, Evidence, Explanation) format to organise each paragraph.

  PEE helps you present a clear claim, support it with facts or examples, and explain the link to the question, meeting the marking criteria for cause‑and‑effect.

• Answering e-commerce questions

  Begin with a clear definition of e-commerce, then describe how it removes geographic barriers, give a concrete example, and conclude with the impact on market reach.

  This structure ensures you cover all required elements and stay within the word limit.

• Use specific examples

  When answering, link digital communication tools to particular stakeholder groups and give concrete examples.

  This demonstrates a clear understanding of how digital communication creates new channels and improves relationships, which is key to scoring well.
