You can copy it exactly. Doesn't make a difference.

Firstly, remember to keep your summary short; marks are deducted for exceeding it and the examiners do not read any further then the 100 words, hence the additional points you write will not be read. Secondly, try to finish the first half of the paper [ comprehensions, note making,etc] in the first hour so that you can focus on the creative writing part later on. Try to think of a smart or catchy title for the article and do not forget your name under it. If you've got time then re-read your article/letter/essay and try to replace the easy words with better vocabulary. Examiners always appreciate good vocabulary and try to use more idioms. I know this is going to sound silly, but READ the question very clearly. Often in haste, countless students misread the question and this results in the low marks. Once you get the question paper, turn the pages and go through the questions, not in detail, but so that you have an idea of what is coming next. Once you read the essay/writing topics jot down the points in rough that you're stormed with so that you don't forget them. This will help later on when you actually get down to writing it. Lastly, do not panic, be calm and cool throughout the paper. Go with a 'bring it on' attitude in the examination hall.

Best Of Luck :good:
