Explain Question: Reflection
Posted on: April 25, 2011
Hmm.. How would I explain this?
I was quite disappointed at my performance in answering this time’s explain question. One of the thing I have noticed is that I need to be careful when reading the question. Even one letter counts in this question type. For example, I have missed the “s” after diagram. Therefore, I concentrated on one diagram and not even bothered about the second diagram. Because of this, the maximum grade I could get became six. Other than that, it is important to define all terms and talk about the change in price level and real GDP.

Yes Evangel, reading the question very carefully is essential. Students often want to answer the question we have in mind and not what IB wants. I am sure you will do better on the real test.
