Exam tips

• You should describe the thing or place you are reviewing. Try to use a range of descriptive
adjectives and adverbs.
• Remember to include your opinions and give reasons – say why you liked it or why you didn’t.
• You usually need to say if you’d recommend the subject of your review to other people or not.
